What KeyCDN is
KeyCDN is a content delivery network that serves content from nearby points of presence. Pull Zones fetch content from an origin server, while Push Zones store uploaded content in KeyCDN storage. The network description covers more than 60 data centers in over 40 countries across six continents, with 60 listed edge locations. Performance features include HTTP/2, IPv6, gzip and Brotli compression, byte-range requests and HTTP Live Streaming. Image Processing transforms and optimizes images in real time through query parameters. Security options include TLS, Secure Token, OCSP stapling, bad-bot blocking, DDoS protection, access rules and two-factor authentication. The REST API manages Zones, aliases, referrers and reports through HTTPS with HTTP Basic Auth. Integrations cover WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Magento, TYPO3, PrestaShop and Laravel. Support is available 24/7 at no additional cost. There is no free plan, but a 14-day trial requires no credit card.
