CDN Traffic Shaper

CDN Traffic Shaper is a networking control mechanism that limits or prioritizes flows across links for content delivery and edge caching. It uses queues, rate limits, and quality-of-service rules so teams can protect important traffic while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.

“The network engineering team used CDN Traffic Shaper when a cache region served an asset, so the team could protect important traffic before traffic crossed a service boundary.”
