How did Mlytics enable NOWnews to access multiple CDNs affordably?

Question

Mlytics enabled NOWnews to access multiple CDNs affordably by packaging several “trusted CDN” options into a single, one-stop pricing plan rather than forcing separate contracts and separate payments per provider. Instead of paying independently for each CDN, NOWnews could select multiple trusted CDNs “based on your needs, all in one price plan,” which directly addressed the typical cost structure of CDN commitments. In CDN operations, providers commonly tie pricing to annual minimum traffic commitment fees, so the financial pressure is not only the unit cost of delivery but also the requirement to commit to a baseline volume for each CDN relationship.

Accepted Answer

This affordability model also mattered because NOWnews had already experienced a traffic shift after early 2020 website optimization reduced page weight and lowered used traffic. Even with lower traffic, the annual commitment fees in their existing CDN agreement still applied, creating a mismatch between cost and actual usage. As a result, NOWnews looked for a backup CDN solution while needing to maintain security and traffic stability; however, the move to a multi-provider architecture normally increases complexity and can increase spend if each CDN is priced and contracted separately.
