A global retailer notices that users abroad experience high latency when accessing its web platform. The technical team wants to reduce these delays and improve application responsiveness. Which solution accomplishes this objective?
Deploying a content distribution system with geographically distributed endpoints
Increasing processor power on the primary servers
Implementing a caching feature at the main data center
Installing intrusion detection components at the outer edge
Placing content in multiple nodes around the globe through a Content Delivery Network (CDN) cuts down on data transport times. A CDN reduces the distance data travels, resulting in faster load times for distant locations. Increasing processor power, installing security components, or adjusting local caching at a single site does not address the issue of distance-based delays as effectively. Ensuring content is closer to the consumer is key for improving performance in a global setting.
