Challenge

jsDelivr aims to enhance its web page delivery by implementing a multi-CDN strategy. This involves adding new CDN providers, especially in underserved areas. By doing so, they can optimize content delivery based on user locations, ensuring faster and more reliable service. Effective DNS management is crucial for this strategy, enabling smoother load balancing and improved stability for jsDelivr's customers.

Solution

Gcore's significant contribution to jsDelivr's multi-CDN system includes unlimited CDN bandwidth, particularly in regions like South America, Africa, and South Asia. In Europe, Gcore has bolstered content delivery capabilities, ensuring optimal performance. For DNS services, Gcore offers extended GeoDNS functionality with 108 DNS PoPs, reducing the load on existing providers and enhancing system availability. Additionally, Gcore provides an image optimization tool for jsDelivr, enabling users to convert JPG and PNG files to WebP and AVIF formats, apply edits, and optimize image quality. An example highlights a 1.2 MB PNG file reduced to a 69 KB AVIF image, achieving a remarkable 94% traffic savings without compromising visual quality.

Results
