CloudLayer™ CDN helps you deliver content to end users faster and more efficiently via a network of 21 cloud-connected nodes
running advanced organizing, storing, and streaming software. Rather than serving content directly from your host server, your
content is served from a node that is geographically closer to your end user, minimizing the distance the data has to travel,
avoiding network traffic jams, and decreasing latency.
CloudLayer CDN is available in two different content delivery options, letting you optimize your end-user experience and cost.
Origin Pull The first time content is requested, it’s pulled from the host server to the network and stays there for other users to accessit until it’s automatically cleared 24 hours after the last demand for it. The first requesting user will have an average content deliveryexperience, while later users will have streamlined delivery. Pay As You Go or monthly pricing is based only on bandwidth used.
POP Pull Content is stored on all 21 nodes around the globe, remaining available “at the edge” of the network and providing
streamlined delivery at all times for all users. Pay As You Go or monthly pricing is based on bandwidth and storage used, with
mix and match rate plans available.
CloudLayer CDN includes robust tools for digital rights management and content monetization, with SoftLayer’s renowned
ease-of-use and unparalleled level of control. In addition, it can be seamlessly integrated with your SoftLayer dedicated servers,
virtual servers, automated services, and additional CloudLayer Services, to create a unified computing solution with unequaled
efficiency and interoperability.
