CDN Analytics

Get insights into your CDN traffic, cache performance, and bandwidth usage.

Analytics Dashboard

Each CDN deployment includes a real-time analytics dashboard showing key performance metrics.

Key Metrics

Total Requests

The total number of HTTP requests served by the CDN across all domains in the deployment.

Cache Hits

Requests served directly from the edge cache without contacting your origin server.

Cache Misses

Requests that required fetching content from your origin server.

Bandwidth

Total data transferred from the CDN to end users.

Cache Hit Rate

Your cache hit rate is one of the most important CDN metrics. It shows what percentage of requests are being served from cache vs. fetched from origin.

Cache Hit Rate 87.3%
Cache Hits: 8,730 Cache Misses: 1,270

Per-Domain Analytics

Click on any domain in your deployment to see its individual analytics:

cdn.yoursite.com
12.5K requests
assets.yoursite.com
8.2K requests
images.yoursite.com
3.1K requests

Top Content

Identify your most requested content with the Top Content tab. This feature tracks the most popular paths across your CDN deployment in real-time.

Use Cases

Popular Content

Identify which assets drive the most traffic to optimize their delivery.

Cache Optimization

Find paths with low hit rates that may benefit from configuration changes.

Bandwidth Hotspots

See which content consumes the most bandwidth for cost analysis.

Real-time Tracking

Top Content data is collected in real-time from edge nodes. Up to 100 paths per domain are tracked, sorted by request count. The data refreshes automatically every minute.

Traffic Visualization

View your traffic patterns over time with interactive charts:

Requests Over Time

See request volume trends and identify peak traffic periods.

Cache Performance

Compare cache hits vs misses over time to monitor caching effectiveness.

Bandwidth Usage

Track data transfer volumes and plan for capacity.

Data Retention

Analytics data is stored with the following retention periods:

Minute-level data 24 hours
Hourly aggregates 7 days
Daily aggregates 30 days
Monthly aggregates 12 months

Improving Cache Performance

If your cache hit rate is lower than expected, try these optimizations:

1

Increase Cache-Control max-age

Longer TTLs mean content stays cached longer. Use versioned URLs for assets that change.

2

Normalize query strings

Avoid unnecessary query parameters that create different cache keys for the same content.

3

Remove Set-Cookie from static assets

Responses with Set-Cookie headers aren't cached. Ensure your origin doesn't set cookies on static files.

Activity Log
