The Challenge

Monocle's global audience expects instant access to rich media content—high-resolution photography, audio streams, and video. Their previous infrastructure struggled with inconsistent performance across regions, particularly in Asia and South America. Traffic spikes during breaking stories caused slowdowns, and unpredictable egress costs made budgeting difficult.

The Solution

By leveraging Edge's global CDN with 2,137 edge locations, Monocle now delivers content with sub-50ms latency to their international audience. The zero egress pricing model means predictable costs regardless of traffic spikes from breaking stories or viral content. Smart routing automatically directs users to the fastest available node.

Key Results

Sub-50ms latency achieved globally
Zero egress fees regardless of traffic
Consistent performance across all regions
Seamless handling of traffic spikes
Simplified infrastructure management
Predictable monthly costs
