The CDN netart.com statistics, available in the CloudHosting Panel and in the Customer Panel, have been expanded with further useful information. They will make it much easier for you to check the effectiveness of your sites’ use of the Content Delivery Network and quickly determine any configuration adjustments worth making.
CDN netart.com is worth using
CDN netart.com is a network of geographically distributed servers that store copies of your site’s elements closer to the end users. Shortening the distance between the recipient and the site improves the speed of the site. The entire process is referred to as data caching. When a user sends a request for a site, the nearest CDN netart.com node transmits the data it has stored with it to the user’s browser. Information that is not on the node is retrieved from the source server.
HIT indicator to CDN server
If the data of your website is in the memory of a CDN node, it will be immediately sent to the user’s browser. In CDN statistics, this situation is described by the HIT indicator. Data that is not in CDN memory is first retrieved from the source server. Then, unless you have excluded them from caching in your site configuration, they will be stored in the CDN node and wait there until the next person decides to access your site.
Except for situations where a page is downloaded for the first time, by default some data is never collected on CDN nodes. An example is PHP files, which practically always run on the source server.
Proper caching settings
It is assumed that out of all requests for files of a given page, if its caching on CDN nodes is properly configured, the HIT rate should reach 60% or more. A result below 60% can be considered correct, but only if the content on the site is dynamic and changes frequently. If the site is static and updated less frequently, yet the HIT indicator shows a value lower than 60%, check whether your site’s caching settings are correct. Instructions related to the configuration of data caching rules in CDN netart.com nodes are available in our Help Center at https://www.netart.com/gb/support-center/docs/setting-individual-headers-and-cache-control-times.
