Overview

What a CDN Is

A CDN (Content Delivery Network) distributes your content across servers around the world, bringing it closer to users. Cloudflare operates 330+ data centers globally, ensuring your content is served from the location closest to the visitor.

The Franchise Analogy

Imagine a pizzeria with a branch in every neighborhood instead of one central kitchen. The customer orders and receives it from the nearest branch, without waiting for delivery from downtown. A CDN does this for your site: local copies serve users quickly.
