CDN

A network of servers around the world that delivers your files faster by serving them from the closest location.

Detailed Explanation

A CDN (Content Delivery Network) is a global network of servers that delivers your web content from the location closest to each user. Instead of all requests going to one server, a CDN distributes copies of your files worldwide, dramatically reducing load times.

CDNs work with HTTPS and SSL to securely deliver content. They use caching to store copies of files, DNS to route users to the nearest server, and are integrated into Deployment platforms. Vercel, Cloudflare, and AWS CloudFront are popular CDN providers.

CDNs are essential for performance. They deliver Frontend assets (images, scripts, stylesheets), API responses, and Supabase storage files. Modern Hosting platforms include CDN functionality automatically.
