Broadmedia®CDN Service
The Broadmedia® CDN (Content Delivery Network) service distributes PC or mobile phone content from content providers via the most appropriate servers for the user.

Our aim is to provide not only optimal distribution to users within Japan but also service on a global scale.
CDN stands for Content Delivery Network, and refers to a network that is optimized for distribution of web content over the Internet.

In recent years, it has been common for websites to receive sudden, unexpected surges in web traffic due to links from major portal sites or joint promotions with other forms of media. If the web content is being distributed from a single source, the servers and networks can become overloaded. For the end-user, this often results in inferior experiences ranging from slow connections to being unable to view the content, and sometimes being unable to connect to the website altogether.

In the age of broadband, load balancing is required to prevent overloading when distributing content such as videos, online games, music, etc. With the assistance of Broadmedia® CDN, companies will be able to ensure fast and stable delivery of their content to more people at a lower cost, instead of investing in large amounts of equipment and infrastructures.
[Before Implementation]
·Speed and stability of content delivery is significantly compromised if the website receives more traffic than the infrastructure can handle. (In some cases the website may become temporarily unavailable.)
·Unnecessary costs result from expanding the system to meet peak-access.

[After Implementation]
·Load balancing ensures stable distribution of content with no negative impact on performance.
·Cost performance is improved by a fee system that only charges for the amount used.
·Support is provided 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, making secure site management possible.
The Broadmedia® CDN (Content Delivery Network) service distributes PC or mobile phone content from content providers via the most appropriate servers for the user.

The main service is Broadmedia® CDN+R, which is compatible with the following three distribution formats.
·Cache Distribution
Cache distribution is a service that reduces server load and bandwidth usage by caching files from which websites are composed—HTML, text, images, etc.
·On-Demand Streaming
On-demand streaming is a one-stop service that provides the network and distribution servers required for streaming distribution.
·Download Distribution
Download distribution is a service that allows highly accessed files to be distributed in a stable manner without causing strain on the client's servers.
