CDN
9 providers in this category.
Content delivery networks cache and serve content from edge locations close to users, cutting latency and offloading origin servers. Many bundle security (a WAF and DDoS protection) and edge compute alongside delivery. The key trade-offs are edge footprint, bandwidth and egress pricing (and any free tier), and the strength of the bundled WAF and DDoS protection.
