koudfront

Koudfront is a cloud-based content delivery network (CDN) and edge computing platform developed by KoudTech. It accelerates the delivery of web content, media, and applications by caching assets at a global network of edge locations and by running compute workloads near end users. The aim is to reduce origin load and improve performance for static and dynamic content.

The service uses a distributed network of edge points of presence (PoPs) and anycast routing. It supports HTTP/2 and HTTP/3, TLS termination at the edge, and various optimization features for images and video. It offers origin pull and origin push workflows, customizable cache keys, and policies such as long TTLs and stale-while-revalidate. Edge functions enable lightweight processing, personalization, and A/B testing at the edge.

Security and observability are integrated, including DDoS protection, a Web Application Firewall, bot management, TLS/SSL management, signed URLs, and access controls. It provides APIs and infrastructure-as-code options, plus dashboards for real-time metrics, logs, and traces.

Common use cases include static site acceleration, e-commerce, media streaming, software updates, and IoT data distribution. Koudfront positions itself among major CDNs, with an emphasis on edge computing and programmable delivery. Pricing is typically based on data transfer, requests, and edge compute usage, with tiered plans and enterprise options.
