- This problem is a space that provides the administrative capacity to each of its users to have a quality and one hundred percent professional operational management.
- Azure CDN allows you to have a better management of all your documents as well as preserve them in the best way in its cloud-based storage support.
Cons
- The large number of options and shortcuts that this program shows and manifests requires prior training for new and interested users.
- There are some small bugs in the interface to make clear the function of each tool, this aspect can be improved in a future update.

- Global reach - we have customers around the world and they all get excellent performance.
- Global availability - we've never had down time on Azure CDN.
- Easy management - you can do everything easily from the portal connecting things to a storage container and from there it's zero management except purging on new content.
Cons
- For the longest time they didn't have a robust SDK. They have one now, but it could be better.
- The different flavors of Azure CDN (Akamai, Verizon, etc) have different costs, but not well differentiated features. Might be confusing to new users.
- I'm not overly familiar with it, but AWS does have a programmability in their CDN offering (Lambda @ Edge) and Azure doesn't seem to have an equivalent (Azure Functions is region-specific).
