  • Anycast routing for optimal path selection
  • Sub-15ms average latency in Europe
  • 200+ Tbps total network capacity

Smart Caching

Intelligent cache algorithms that maximize hit rates while respecting your origin's cache headers and custom rules.

  • Configurable TTL per zone
  • Query string cache controls
  • Instant cache purging

SSL/TLS Security

All content is served over HTTPS with automatic SSL certificate management. No extra configuration needed.

  • Free SSL certificates included
  • TLS 1.3 support
  • Custom domain SSL support

Real-time Analytics

Comprehensive insights into your traffic patterns, cache performance, and bandwidth usage with live dashboards.

  • Live request monitoring
  • Geographic traffic distribution
  • Cache hit ratio tracking

Performance Optimization

Built-in optimizations to make your content load faster than ever.

Gzip & Brotli Compression

Automatic compression of text-based assets reduces bandwidth by up to 90%. Brotli compression provides even better ratios for modern browsers.

HTTP/2 & HTTP/3

Full support for modern protocols including HTTP/2 multiplexing and HTTP/3 with QUIC for faster connection establishment.

Image Optimization

On-the-fly image resizing, format conversion to WebP/AVIF, and quality optimization to deliver the perfect image for every device.

CSS & JS Minification

Automatic minification of CSS and JavaScript files removes unnecessary characters and whitespace for smaller file sizes.

Smart Prefetching

Predictive prefetching anticipates user navigation and preloads content before it's requested, eliminating perceived latency.

Origin Shield

Reduce origin load by up to 99% with our origin shield feature. All edge requests are consolidated through a single shield location.

Security & Protection

Multi-layered edge security that protects your origin and blocks threats before they reach your infrastructure.

Edge Shield

Real-time threat detection with OWASP filtering, honeypot traps, and 404 flood detection. Malicious IPs are blocked across the entire network within seconds.

  • Network-wide IP blocklist synced in <30s

Bot Management

Distinguish between legitimate bots (Google, Bing) and malicious scrapers. Real-time traffic classification with one-click block or challenge actions.

  • Automated threat scoring & classification
  • Verified bot allowlisting
  • Auto-block critical threats

Rate Limiting

Token bucket rate limiting at the edge. Protect APIs and pages from abuse with per-IP, per-path, per-country, or global rules.

  • Configurable rules by IP, path & country
  • Built-in presets for common crawlers
  • PoW challenges for suspicious traffic

Web Application Firewall

IP, country, and user-agent based access control with block, allow, and proof-of-work challenge actions. Priority-based rule evaluation.
