Technical Questions About Server and Frontend
Does my website need a CDN?
Answer
A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is worthwhile whenever your visitors come from different geographic regions. The CDN stores static resources like images, CSS and JavaScript on servers worldwide and delivers them from the nearest location. For a regional website with predominantly German visitors, a CDN is less critical, provided the server is located in Germany. For international websites or shops with a global customer base, a CDN can improve load times for distant visitors by 40 to 60 percent.
