Performance Metrics

CDN provides stable acceleration and relieves pressure on origin servers. You can view performance metrics before and after CDN is used to check the acceleration effect.

Common Metrics

The following table lists CDN common metrics.

Metric	Description
Latency	Total time required for uploading or downloading a file.
Packet loss rate	Ratio of the number of lost packets to the number of sent packets.
Retrieval ratio	Retrieval ratio includes the retrieval request rate and retrieval traffic rate. Retrieval request ratio = Requests with cache misses/All requests on CDN nodes. Requests with cache misses include requests that are not cached, have expired (cacheable), or cannot be cached. Retrieval traffic ratio: Retrieval traffic is generated when CDN nodes request content from origin servers. Retrieval traffic ratio = Retrieval traffic/(Retrieval traffic + Traffic generated by user requests). A lower ratio indicates a better performance.
Cache hit ratio	Cache hit ratio includes request hit ratio and traffic hit ratio. A higher cache hit ratio indicates a better performance. Cache hit ratio = Number of requests that hit caches/Number of total requests Traffic hit ratio = Traffic generated when CDN node caches are hit/Total request traffic Total request traffic = Traffic generated when CDN node caches are hit + Traffic generated during content retrieval NOTA: The traffic hit ratio indicates the load on the origin server. A lower traffic hit ratio means a larger retrieval traffic, which leads to a larger output traffic and higher bandwidth consumption on the origin server.

When CDN is used, the latency, packet loss rate, and retrieval ratio decrease, whereas the cache hit ratio increases. However, the acceleration performance varies between service scenarios and types, even if the CDN configuration is the same. Therefore, this topic provides only qualitative indicators for your references.
If you do not use CDN, the retrieval ratio is 100% and the cache hit ratio is 0.

Acceleration Case

This test uses the universal test method in the industry. The service provider is Tingyun. Test objects are HUAWEI CLOUD OBS buckets and HUAWEI CLOUD CDN. Test carriers are China Unicom and China Telecom.

Latency
Unit: second
Availability
The availability of OBS buckets and CDN is 100%.
