About

In online content delivery, user experience is everything. Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) lets you reduce load times, save bandwidth, and speed responsiveness, whether you’re developing or managing websites or mobile apps, or encoding and distributing streaming media, gaming software, firmware updates, or IoT endpoints. CDN works seamlessly with Azure services, including Web Apps, Media Services, Storage, and Cloud Services. Apply CDN to your scenarios in just a few clicks. Azure APIs and developer tools give you the performance, reliability, and security you need to build global applications fast. Our APIs also give customers the flexibility to optimize features for availability and performance. Mitigate security threats on the content distribution network, such as distributed denial-of-service attacks. Optimize security by enabling HTTPS for your domain names, without additional cost or certificate management.

About

Empower your developers, connect with your customers, and grow your business with today’s leading edge cloud platform. Deliver the best online experiences possible with our edge cloud platform, built to strengthen your current teams and technology. We move data and applications closer to your users — at the edge of the network — to help your websites and apps perform faster, safer, and at global scale. Fastly's highly programmable CDN gives you the freedom to customize delivery right at the edge. Delight your users with the content they want at their fingertips. Our powerful POPs, driven by solid-state drives (SSDs) and hosted in well-connected locations around the world, help us keep more content in cache longer for fewer trips to the origin. Instant Purge and batch purging with surrogate keys let you cache and invalidate highly dynamic content with a mean purge time of 150 milliseconds*. Serve headlines, inventory, or weather forecasts that are always up to date.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Recommended for enterprises. Excellent response times, 230% faster serving of images on azure blob storage, 200% faster serving of videos on azure blob storage. Ability to use multiple CDN networks. Azure provides 3 CDNs : 1. Akamai CDN 2. Verizon CDN (edgecast CDN) : offers Standard and premium 3. Azure CDN Each CDN has its own special features which makes a multi-CDN infrastructure very fast. Azure has more datacenters and regions than Google Cloud and AWS. Hence, very fast response times. Here's what tests say: Test Image: 5MB image with 1M requests per second. Latency comparison: Azure CDN : 5ms consistent latency AWS CloudFront : 40ms consistent latency Google Cloud CDN : 270ms fluctuating latency Azure has more CDN nodes than any other cloud provider.

Cons

  • Azure CDN does not provide dynamic acceleration of web content, but the other 2 CDNs provide it luckily.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

  • It makes any website well optimized for users and search engines. It also adds an image optimizer which helps to reduce the loading times from the website. It secures and gives HTTPS tag for your website.
