Content Delivery Network (CDN)

This is a network of servers which deliver web pages to users based on their geographical locations, the origins of the web pages, and the content delivery servers. The CDN will copy pages of a web site to a network of servers, caching the contents of the pages, and redirect users' requests from the original site servers to a server in the CDN closest to the users in order to deliver the cached contents CDN can speed up content deliveries, especially those that involve high traffic and web sites that have global reach.
