How does a CDN enhance website performance?

CDNs enhance website performance in several ways:
Reduced Latency: CDNs minimize data travel distances, reducing latency and improving loading times.
Load Balancing: They distribute traffic across multiple servers, preventing overloading of a single server.
Caching: CDNs cache content, storing copies closer to users for quicker access.
Content Duplication: Popular content is stored on multiple servers, further reducing latency.
DDoS Protection: CDNs absorb and mitigate Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.
Enhanced Security: Some CDNs offer security features like SSL/TLS encryption and web application firewall (WAF) to safeguard websites.
