Lightning-fast web loading is one of the major service promises that almost every modern web hosting company mentions in their advertisements. Achieving this goal involves a lot of methodologies because the web load time depends on many factors such as the size of web page/content blocks, the performance level of the server, the distance between server and visitor. Content Delivery Networking (CDN) is a methodology to increase the web load speed by reducing the distance between the server and the visitor. A CDN can be defined as a group of servers that are located in different geographical locations to facilitate the distribution of content via the web in an efficient and timely manner. The main goal of a CDN is to serve content from the closest server to the visitor, instead of getting served from the origin web server.
