How the node is chosen

1. A visitor looks up your siteOur DNS works out where they're coming from.
2. They get the nearest node's addressA European visitor gets a European node.
3. The node serves the siteIf it already has the page cached it delivers it at once, otherwise it asks your server and keeps it for the next visitors.

FAQ

Network questions

?
What is a CDN and do I need to switch it on?

It's a network of nodes that serves pages and images from the point closest to the visitor. It's already included and switches on by itself when your domain points to us. See the Network page.

Does the site stay online during an attack?

The CDN and network defences absorb most attacks, and suspicious bots are challenged or blocked. Nobody can guarantee 100%: if you need more, Cloud has reserved resources.

Where is my data? And GDPR?

On servers in Europe, in France. You can also ask for your site to be served only from European Union nodes. Before launch we publish terms, privacy and a data processing agreement (DPA). See the Network page.

How do I connect a domain I already have?

The domain stays where it is: at your registrar you change the nameservers to the ones we give you (ns1, ns2, ns3). The SSL certificate activates by itself and the CDN starts serving your site.

My site shows an old version after changes: why?

It's the cache serving the previous copy. Clear the cache from the site panel and, if you use the CDN, that one too. If you still see the old version after a few minutes, write to us.
