Fire umbrella cloud fusion CDN is based on traditional CDN and integrates high-quality nodes from various mainstream CDN manufacturers around the world through technical means to achieve intelligent scheduling and accelerated management services with full business processing capabilities. Fusion of CDN through Fireumbrella Cloud can solve the problem of closed separation between multiple manufacturers of the original CDN, and achieve rapid and high-quality access to content distribution services for users through intelligent means such as monitoring, analysis, scheduling, and aggregation management. Each node in a CDN is like a “warehouse” in a courier system. Integrating a CDN is like a “big BOSS” that can achieve aggregation management through a complete monitoring system (collecting network quality information from the entire system), big data analysis (extracting effective information), and intelligent scheduling (using effective channels), quickly delivering each “courier” from a nearby “warehouse” to users.
Convergence CDN breaks the dilemma of limited node resources and scheduling capabilities of a single CDN manufacturer, breaking through the limitations of geographical time and different cloud server operators. By using powerful intelligent scheduling strategies to comprehensively utilize the above resources to solve problems in actual scenarios, it can bring more high-quality service effects, more stable quality, and relatively lower service costs.
1、 Reasons for the emergence of fusion CDN
With the rapid development of cloud computing, especially the advent of the era of streaming media and large video, traditional CDNs have faced many problems in resource allocation:
- Delay issues
The streaming media era is dominated by dynamic content distribution, especially video services such as live streaming, which are very sensitive to latency issues. The node resources of traditional CDNs alone cannot meet the low latency requirements.
- Node quality issues
The quality of traditional CDN service nodes and computer rooms is not guaranteed. Service providers may choose relatively inexpensive computer rooms to save costs, which means that reliability and controllability are reduced, and sudden failures can lead to downtime accidents.
- Restriction issues for manufacturers
Traditional CDN manufacturers have relatively closed resources, limited scheduling space, poor stability, and a lack of intelligent management, resulting in high management costs that are detrimental to industry development.
Fireumbrella Cloud Convergence CDN integrates major mainstream manufacturers and their own resources in the world, with higher quality infrastructure, greater bandwidth capacity reserves, more refined link control, and more intelligent scheduling management. It can meet users’ requirements for multiple types of content management and distribution, ensure user service continuity, and provide stable and fast network access quality.

The solution can effectively improve the loading speed of dynamic pages, avoid network congestion routing, improve access success rates, and achieve overall website acceleration and real-time optimization.
Industries that can be accelerated using full site integrated CDN include online education, gaming, retail, finance, media sites, and social networking, with almost full coverage of usage scenarios.
3、 Why choose Fire Umbrella Cloud fusion CDN cooperation
Currently, there are many integrated CDN providers in the market, but most of them remain in the first step of conceptually aggregating multiple resources. The so-called integrated CDN platform only serves as the customer’s outsourcing procurement team or CDN operation and maintenance department. The pain points of the original CDN service have not been resolved: customer traffic is sudden, and it is still necessary to manually ask four times, “see who can connect”; If there is a network fault, it is still necessary to ask, troubleshoot, and resolve it one by one. If switching is necessary, it is also necessary to repeatedly communicate.
In fact, integrating CDN and aggregating multiple resources is only the first step, even the simplest one. In the context of the red sea competition in the CDN industry and the business pressure faced by various manufacturers, it is not difficult to establish business cooperation with them. Currently, the vast majority of integrated CDNs on the market are still in the first step. The key factor to truly solve the pain point is actually the technical part under the water.
The pain point of the original CDN service model is not that it cannot be switched. However, due to the isolation and fragmentation between multiple vendors, it is difficult to quickly identify and locate problems, and it is difficult to master the entire network status. After discovering problems, the switching process requires repeated communication and wastes time, thereby harming the business.
Correspondingly, the key to integrating CDN is not to be able to switch, but to be able to control the quality of the entire network at any time, detect network traffic bursts or failures at the first time, quickly locate problems, and then make scheduling arrangements. The entire process is smooth and efficient, even without manual communication.
4、 Fire umbrella cloud fusion CDN solves the following problems relatively well:
Extensive global intelligent convergence
