CDN Pro with Web Application Firewall (WAF) builds and deploys customer rules in minutes to provide layered defenses for your websites. CDN Pro’s SSL services protect your applications to ensure secure data exchanges over the internet.
CDN Pro organizes edge servers into cost-based server groups. This approach allows you to choose the best way to deliver content according to your business and budgetary requirements.
CDN Pro APIs offer a collection of endpoints for managing your content delivery services. Built on a REST API architecture, CDN Pro APIs provide a flexible, seamless way to integrate into your application and Software Development Life Cycle.
CDN Pro gives you full control over the delivery of your content. It empowers you with an intuitive programming interface with finely grained controls for managing traffic flow.
CDN PoPs are deployed worldwide. User requests are routed to edge servers based on proximity and resource/content availability, reducing workloads on origin servers by more than 90%. CDN Pro cached contents remain available even if the origin server stops responding to requests.
CDN Pro offers complete real-time visibility into your user data. With real-time logs, you can quickly identify performance bottlenecks, adjust configurations, and deploy changes at any time. CDN Pro services include access to raw data and tools for managing the delivery of your content in a preemptive, efficient, and secure way.
With the unique ability to leverage PoPs located in and near Mainland China, CDN Pro enables you to reach customers in Mainland China with or without an Internet Content Provider (ICP) certification license. CDN Pro also offers assistance in obtaining all necessary permissions and licenses required to provide superior user experiences in China.
CDN Pro’s globally distributed networks provide a natural defense against a wide array of attacks. With CDN Pro, content, APIs, and applications are protected in transit over HTTPS-secured networks. CDN Pro with WAF and DDoS mitigation provide even greater protection against serious threats.
Unlike the long deployment cycles with traditional CDNs, CDN Pro is a self-service platform enabling you to configure, test, and deploy CDN configurations to production in minutes.
Caching content on CDN Pro networks reduces the need and costs to retrieve content from the origin. CDN Pro edge servers are grouped according to cost. This allows you to choose the server groups that best suit your delivery and budgetary requirements.
CDN Pro provides an API interface for easily automating workflows and integration into your Software Development Life Cycles. With serverless programmability at the edge, CDN Pro gives you highly granular control over content caching and management based on your application needs.
CDN Pro Edge Cloud run time code uses Open-source NGINX scripting language. It supports a standard set of NGINX directives and advanced CDNetworks proprietary directives. CDN Pro portal facilitates an IDE programming interface, Edge Logic, for you to program and control traffic delivery, such as modifying requests, responses, cache control, content redirect and modification, HTTP header, and back-to-origin path manipulation.
To get started, just log into the CDN Pro portal account create a new property for your application or edit an existing property, and add your program in the Edge Logic window on the portal. It’s just that simple!
The following snippet of Edge Logic code allows you to get an understanding of CDN Pro programming. When performing bot management, you might want to make sure the request is made by a human using a browser instead of by a bot or crawler before the content is delivered to fulfill a request. The following Edge Logic code achieves this purpose by prompting end-users to click a button to receive the requested content:
location /protected/ {
if ($cookie_validated = '') { #check the existence of the cookie 'validated'
add_header Set-Cookie 'validated=1; Max-Age=60';
add_header Content-Type 'text/html' policy=overwrite;
return 200 '<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<script>
alert("Human, click OK to proceed.");
location.href="$request_uri";
</script>
</html>';
}
# continue loading the page from origin or cache
origin_pass my_origin;
}
Once deployed to CDN Pro production, the code is scaled instantly in the edge locations around the globe. If an HTTP(S) request from an end-user for your configured property is received by the CDN Pro platform, your code is executed and runs in the edge location closest to the end-user. Since your program code is unconstrained by the limits of physical or virtual server structures, it scales instantly and is always available to your end-users.
CDN Pro caches your static and video contents on the edge servers for the best experience, saves your back to origin bandwidth costs, and delivers your dynamic traffic with lower latency and higher availability
