Our BestHop™ Traffic Management System is smart, very smart.
While traditional (or 'first-generation') CDN's have used 'DNS tricks' to circumvent BGP (the internet's core protocol), BestHop™ instead harnesses the power of BGP to determine how content can be delivered in the most efficient manner over CacheFly's global CDN footprint. BestHop™ uses Anycast to instruct carriers routers to make connections to the best available point-of-presence for the end user. By combining anycast with our unprecidented international footprint, CacheFly has built the next-generation in Content Delivery Network.
That's a really complicated way of saying "it's makes things much faster".
The result of BestHop™ traffic management is a drastic reduction in latency, and the potential to deliver content at 10x that of traditional single location hosts.
Latency Shootout
Our latency shootout puts the top networks in webhosting to the test, comparing performance by measuring
latency from over 30 backbone locations.
