Edge Distribution Platform
Run fast at the edge. Rest easy at night.
The edge platform that delivers speed, resilience and intelligence together
Does moving to the edge mean moving away from your security?
Performance volatility
Modern, distributed apps, APIs and real-time workloads stretch legacy CDN architectures, leading to inconsistent performance, latency spikes and poor user experience
Expanding attack surface
Automated traffic now dominates, with sophisticated bad bots and API-led attacks exploiting gaps in traditional perimeter security and app-only controls
Tool sprawl and blind spots
Multiple vendors for CDN, WAF, DDoS, bot management and observability create policy drift, higher costs and slower incident response especially across multicloud environments
Resiliency & sovereignty pressure
Enterprises need always-on availability and in-country delivery options to satisfy customer expectations, regulatory demands and sovereignty requirements across markets
Experience the power of a faster, safer, smarter edge
As your data increasingly operates from the edge, new challenges arise. Distributed architectures often mask resiliency gaps and complex sovereignty concerns, while the rise of AI and bots fuels a surge in API vulnerabilities and L7 DDoS attacks. We’ve built the Edge Distribution Platform to master this complexity. Unify your CDN, security and compute under one policy, one control plane, and one bill.
Run fast at the edge. Rest easy at night.
Key capabilities
Imagine a global CDN that’s always on, ready to deliver both live and on-demand content at scale. It handles massive traffic spikes and keeps your viewers happy with consistent, high-quality playback on any device. With smart caching, modern streaming protocols, and token-based security, your content gets where it needs to go—quickly and safely. Plus, with support for both IPv4 and IPv6, you’re set for today and tomorrow.
Our solution protects you from all types of cyber-attacks, including volumetric, protocol, and application-layer threats. With a globally distributed network of defenses, threats are mitigated close to their source. You benefit from real-time threat intelligence, customizable security controls, and access to historical attack data—empowering you to stay proactive and in control.
Your data is secured at the edge using advanced encryption protocols like TLS 1.3, ensuring that every transmission between our edge and your servers remains protected. Our integrated security features block malicious bots, manage API traffic, prevent DDoS attacks, and enable you to set custom rules for traffic handling.
Want to give your users a more personalized experience? You can easily do that by running smart functions right at the edge, close to where your users are. And with simple, ready-to-use edge compute templates, you can set things up quickly without a lot of extra work.
Our intelligent platform orchestrates petabyte-scale internet traffic and supports high levels of concurrency, keeping everything running smoothly even at peak demand. Thanks to the in-built AI-powered analytics, you get real-time visibility and rapid anomaly detection, so issues are spotted and handled automatically. This means you can onboard quickly, optimise faster, and access insights tailored to your role—all through an easy-to-use, self-service experience.
With us, you get a fully managed service and a team that’s always available day or night to help you out. Our experts handle everything from keeping an eye on your edge environments to making sure things run smoothly and are optimized allowing you to focus on what matters most.
We’re always working to keep your applications safer by continuously scanning for vulnerabilities, acting based on clear SLAs and using smart AI to adjust policies so you don’t get bogged down by false positives.
How it all comes together
One platform, multiple possibilities.
From lightning-fast AI inferencing to iron-clad DDoS defense, our platform unifies your most critical edge needs. No more tool sprawl or security gaps—just one control plane to launch, scale, and protect every digital experience your business demands.
1
Secure global web application delivery
Reduce latency spikes and offload traffic from origin infrastructure while protecting apps with WAAP and TLS termination at the edge.
2
API & bot protection
Prevent API abuse, fraud and automated attacks by enforcing API security and AI-based bot management at the edge, before requests hit your core.
3
Comprehensive DDoS protection – L3 to L7
Absorb traffic surges and mitigate DDoS across L3–L7 for large campaigns, live events, launches and seasonal peaks without compromising user experience.
4
Media streaming at scale
Deliver live and VOD content with optimised bitrate, token-based protection and global edge distribution, reducing rebuffering and egress costs.
5
Inferencing at edge
Cut latency to 10ms for real-time AI inference.
6
Unified managed services
Give SecOps, SRE and platform teams a single view of traffic, threats and performance, accelerating investigation, mitigation and capacity planning.
7
Simplify function deployment at Edge
Roll out new features, offers and experiments via edge functions without risking core app stability, supporting blue/green deployments and safe rollbacks.
