China CDN
Full-coverage content delivery inside mainland China — licensed infrastructure, ICP compliance, and local PoPs for users behind the Great Firewall.
What you're up against.
Global CDNs stop at the border
Akamai, Cloudflare, and Fastly have limited or no licensed PoPs inside mainland China. Without local infrastructure, content crosses slow, congested cross-border links or fails to load entirely.
ICP licensing is complex and slow
Operating a CDN in China requires an ICP licence. The application process is bureaucratic, slow, and subject to annual renewal — a significant blocker for most teams.
Two networks create operational blind spots
Running separate CDN contracts, dashboards, and support contacts for China and global traffic creates operational complexity and visibility gaps that hide performance problems.
From deployment to continuous operation.
Licence
We manage ICP licence applications and annual renewals on your behalf — handling regulatory paperwork so your team focuses on your product, not Chinese bureaucracy.
Onboard
Chinese traffic is split at DNS level and routed to local PoPs in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, and more — without changes to your global CDN configuration.
Mirror
Security policies — WAF rules, TLS configuration, cache settings — are synchronised across both networks via our unified control plane.
Monitor
Single-dashboard analytics covering both global and China performance, with alerting for cross-border degradation before it impacts your users.
What's included.
Mainland China PoPs
Local nodes in China's major cities — Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu — delivering sub-100ms response times to tier-1 and tier-2 markets.
ICP licence management
We handle application, compliance monitoring, and annual renewal — full regulatory coverage with no internal overhead or specialist knowledge required.
Unified routing
Chinese traffic routes to local CDN automatically. Your global users are unaffected. One integration point, one support contact.
Security parity
WAF rules, TLS 1.3, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 support mirrored across both networks — no security compromise for your Chinese users.
Cross-border analytics
Single dashboard covering latency, cache hit ratios, and traffic breakdown for both China and global networks in real time.
Protocol optimisation
TCP and QUIC tuning for traffic that must cross the network boundary — minimising latency where raw geography makes it unavoidable.
With licensed local PoPs across China's major cities, your Chinese users get the same low-latency experience your global users already have — without cross-border congestion or regulatory risk.
