Consider something else if…
- Azure Front Door: Budget-sensitive at small scale — no free tier and a $35/month base fee before any traffic is a higher floor than most pay-as-you-go CDNs in this category.
- Bunny CDN: Traffic skews heavily to the Middle East or Africa — the regional rate there is six times the Europe/North America price.
