CDNetworks launches Cloud Image Optimization to improve brands’ web performance

Integrated CDN and image optimisation helps companies deliver fast, high performing web experiences across devices

London – 13th October 2016CDNetworks, a global content delivery network (CDN) and cloud security provider, today announces the launch of its Cloud Image Optimization technology, which allows brands’ websites with high quality product images to deliver a fast consumer experience across any device.

While high resolution images provide a great online user experience, allowing brands to show product details and usage scenarios, they can also slow a website down. Slower websites are not only proven to frustrate users, leading them to seek alternative websites, they are also damaging to brands’ reputation. CDNetworks Cloud Image Optimization allows brands to automatically optimise image performance and ensure a fast user experience, whether accessed on a desktop, tablet, or smartphone. Tests using a third party performance monitoring tool show that CDNetworks’ Cloud Image Optimization accelerates download speeds by 50-80% on desktops and mobile.

“For any brand, having an online presence is key for doing business – but having a good performing website is perhaps even more important. This means that your website loads quickly, encourages an interactive user experience, but is also safe and secure,” said Alex Nam, Managing Director, CDNetworks EMEA. “Our new Cloud Image Optimization technology automatically optimises images and renders websites, delivering a high quality web experience.  Not only does this ensure that the user has an enjoyable experience, it also means that brands can increase productivity for website maintenance and authoring.”

As CDNetworks’ Cloud Image Optimization is integrated with its global CDN infrastructure, no engineering is required. Furthermore, images can be stored locally in a customer’s data centre or in CDNetworks’ Cloud Storage. Cloud Image Optimization works for any image heavy website including ecommerce, travel, consumer goods, fashion, luxury goods, and consumer apps.
