CDNs rely on a process called “caching” that temporarily stores copies of files in data centers across the globe, allowing you to access internet content from a server near you. Content delivered from a server closest to you reduces page load times and results in a faster, high-performance web experience. By caching content like web pages, images, and video in servers near your physical location, CDNs allow you to do things like watch a movie, download software, check your bank balance, post on social media, or make purchases without having to wait for content to load.
