Content delivered from a customer server relies on the quality of established network paths for consistently fast performance. Traditional networking technologies utilize static routing information that can send content across slow and congested paths. Slow loading times and connection timeouts increase the likelihood of a poor user experience that can reduce revenue or damage brand reputation.
Cloudflare routes 10% of all HTTP/HTTPS Internet traffic providing Argo with real-time intelligence on the true speed of network paths. Argo's smart routing algorithm uses this information to route traffic across the fastest paths available, and maintains open, secure connections to eliminate latency imposed by connection setup. Argo’s tiered caching technology uses regional tier 1 Cloudflare data centers to propagate content to Cloudflare’s global network of 118+ Data Centers, minimizing requests to servers and reducing costs.
