Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) have evolved from simple caching systems into critical infrastructure powering today's Internet. This talk highlights how CDNs improve performance, scalability, and security through caching, overlay routing, and transport optimizations, while also enabling media management, site acceleration, and global content protection. We will also discuss CDN architectures and the different design decisions that distinguish them.
