CDNpalvelin
CDNpalvelin is a Finnish term that translates to "CDN server" in English. A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a geographically distributed network of proxy servers and their data centers. The goal of a CDN is to provide high availability and performance by distributing the service spatially relative to end-users. CDNpalvelin refers to an individual server that is part of such a network. These servers store cached copies of web content, such as images, videos, and stylesheets, closer to users. When a user requests content, the CDN directs the request to the nearest CDNpalvelin, reducing latency and improving loading speeds. This distributed approach is crucial for websites and applications that experience high traffic or have a global audience. By offloading traffic from the origin server to numerous CDNpalvelin instances, the overall infrastructure is more resilient and can handle peak loads more effectively. The use of CDNpalvelin technology is a common practice for optimizing website performance, ensuring faster delivery of digital assets, and enhancing the user experience.
