Platform

One edge network for delivery, security and compute

Everything you need to serve global traffic reliably — without stitching together five vendors.

Smart caching

Tiered caching and origin shielding keep hit ratios above 95% and cut origin egress dramatically.

Edge security

Always-on DDoS mitigation, a managed WAF and bot filtering shield every request before it reaches you.

Edge compute

Run lightweight JavaScript & WASM functions at the edge to personalize, rewrite and A/B test in microseconds.

Instant purge

Invalidate any object or tag across all 280 PoPs in under 200 ms — no more waiting on TTLs.

Real-time analytics

Per-second logs and dashboards for traffic, cache ratio, status codes and latency by PoP and path.

TLS at the edge

Free automated certificates, TLS 1.3, HTTP/3 and QUIC on every hostname, renewed for you.

Performance

Every millisecond, everywhere

Requests are answered from the PoP closest to your user over an anycast backbone tuned for congestion. Origins stay quiet, pages stay fast.

  • Anycast routing with automatic failover between PoPs
  • Brotli & Gzip compression and image optimization on the fly
  • HTTP/3 + QUIC and 0-RTT for repeat visitors
  • Origin shield to collapse concurrent misses into one fetch

Security

Protection that never sleeps

Traffic is inspected at every edge node, so volumetric and application attacks are absorbed far from your infrastructure.

  • Multi-terabit DDoS scrubbing included on every plan
  • Managed & custom WAF rules with virtual patching
  • Rate limiting, geo-blocking and bot management
  • Signed URLs and token authentication for private assets
