CDN or Content Delivery Network is actually a distributed network of proxy servers placed in different data centers. The main objective of CDN is to make content available to the end-users located anywhere in the world with high availability and performance. Sooner the content is delivered to end-users, the faster website load. Besides, CDN also ensures that the website is always up even during peak traffic and server outages.

When a user makes a request for any webpage, the server geographically nearest to the user takes the onus to serve the request. The CDN makes a copy of the content of the website to a network of servers spread at different geographical locations, by caching the content of the page. Then, the CDN redirects the request from the originating website’s server to the server in the CDN that is closest to the user, and deliver the cached content.
