Description

Website acceleration

Accelerating Access to OBS Bucket Files

Huawei Cloud CDN can effectively accelerate delivery of website resources to deliver a better user experience. OBS buckets can store massive numbers of files. Storing data in OBS buckets and using CDN for service acceleration can both reduce costs and improve user experience.

Accelerating Access to Websites Built on ECSs

CDN can accelerate ECS-based websites to solve the problem of slow access caused by increasing access traffic, improving user experience.

Accelerating Access to Resources Protected by WAF

For websites requiring both security and performance, combining CDN with WAF accelerates resource delivery, protects against web attacks, and enhances overall security.

Accelerating Cross-Border Access with CDN and Global Accelerator

For cross-border services, combining CDN with Global Accelerator (GA) resolves cross-border origin pull challenges and delivers full acceleration for both dynamic and static content.

Higher cache hit ratio

Setting a Proper Cache TTL

CDN caches origin content on PoPs around the world so that users can obtain the content from nearby PoPs. You can set a proper cache TTL to manage cache duration of resources on CDN PoPs.

Improving the Cache Hit Ratio

A low CDN cache hit ratio increases the load on origin servers, resulting in slower access to static resources.

To improve cache efficiency, you can choose an optimization policy tailored to the underlying cause of the low hit ratio.

Log analysis

Analyzing Malicious Access Addresses Through Logs

If your domain name is under attack, you can enhance security configurations, such as enabling hotlink protection or setting IP whitelists and blacklists. By analyzing logs generated during attacks, you can implement targeted enhancements to your security settings.

Security

Preventing Malicious Traffic

Attacks and malicious traffic will result in a bill higher than your normal expenditures. This bill cannot be waived or refunded. To reduce such risks, set defenses and notifications.
