CDN (content delivery network)
A CDN is a distributed network of servers that store copies of your site's files (images, scripts, styles) closer to visitors. As a result the site loads faster and your server is less loaded.
Many CDNs also offer DDoS protection and a basic firewall. For sites with traffic from different regions, it is a simple way to improve speed and stability at once.
