EdgeNext

EdgeNext delivers CDN, cloud security and edge computing optimised for emerging markets, and that focus is the reason to consider it rather than a general-purpose alternative. Most CDN networks are densest in North America and Western Europe, where the commercial traffic has historically been. A provider that has built deliberately for the next wave of global growth is making a different bet, and for a business serving audiences outside the established markets, point-of-presence density where your users actually are matters far more than a provider's total count.

The published network figures are specific: more than 1,500 global points of presence, over 90 Tbps of network capacity, more than 170 partner internet service providers, and a 30 millisecond global response time. The ISP partnership count is the interesting one, since in emerging markets delivery performance depends heavily on peering arrangements with local carriers rather than on edge hardware alone.

Video is a clear priority. A dedicated live streaming solution is published for the 2026 World Cup, covering match-day traffic with low-latency playback, 4K and 8K streaming, DRM, SCTE-35 ad insertion, replay and global edge delivery. SCTE-35 support signals genuine broadcast capability rather than generic video hosting, since it is the standard used for ad insertion in live streams. Media processing covers live signal handling, media recoding and media delivery.

Security is built in, with protection from DDoS and other threats, and the vendor reports blocking more than 60 million threats daily. A network status page and events feed are published openly, which is a good sign for operational transparency. Sign-up is available directly with a free start, and pricing is not published.
