Understanding the functionality and benefits of Ezoic's CDN and caching is vital for optimizing your website's performance. This article clarifies the relationship between Ezoic’s CDN and its caching feature. Specifically, it explains whether Ezoic's CDN is activated when Ezoic's caching is turned on. By the end of this article, you will have a clear understanding of how Ezoic’s CDN operates when integrated with your site and how enabling the caching app enhances your website's performance by storing content for a specified period.

When a website integrates successfully using methods such as nameservers, Cloudflare, CNAME, or CDN, Ezoic’s Content Delivery Network (CDN) becomes active. This integration ensures that the site is routed through Ezoic’s servers, leveraging the reverse proxy and server-level CDN technology. It's important to note that this server-level CDN differs from traditional caching mechanisms.

When the caching application is enabled, additional performance benefits are realized. This is because Ezoic’s CDN begins to store the website's content for the predefined cache duration. The caching process helps in reducing load times and improving overall site performance, as frequently accessed content is readily available and does not require repeated fetching from the origin server.

1. Enable Caching: Turn on the caching app to improve performance. This allows Ezoic's CDN to store your site's content for the specified default cache age, enhancing your website's speed and efficiency.
2. Monitor Integration Status: Ensure that your website is fully integrated, whether via nameservers, Cloudflare, CNAME, or CDN. Proper integration ensures that Ezoic’s CDN and reverse proxy are functioning correctly.
3. Regularly Update Content: Frequently update your website's content to keep it relevant and improve the caching efficiency. Fresh content can help optimize the cache performance and user experience.
4. Check Server Performance: Regularly monitor your server's performance and make necessary adjustments to maintain optimal speeds. Efficient server performance complements the functionality of Ezoic’s CDN.
5. Utilize Performance Tools: Take advantage of Ezoic’s available tools and resources to analyze and enhance your website's performance. These tools can provide insights and recommendations for further optimization.
