# Shopware CDN.

Deliver media transparently via a content delivery network - better load times, less origin load.

What goes through the CDN

## All media - *automatically*.

Once the plugin is active, every media asset URL in Shopware is automatically rewritten to the CDN domain - no template changes, no manual migration.

Images

### JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF

All product images, slider graphics and theme assets are served transparently via the CDN. Original URLs remain functional.

Videos

### MP4, WebM

Product and background videos are streamed through the CDN - global POPs, adaptive bitrate.

Fonts

### WOFF2, WOFF

Web fonts are served with correct CORS headers and long-term cache - perfect for Core Web Vitals.

PDFs

### Downloads offloaded

Product datasheets and other downloads also go through the CDN - origin server fully offloaded.

Theme assets

### CSS, JS automatically

The Shopware-compiled theme bundle is also delivered via the CDN - all `/theme/*` paths.

SVGs

### Inline-capable icons

SVGs with correct MIME type and optional inline fallback for critical icons.

CDN provider

## [Creoline](https://www.creoline.com/ref/tYq4UkumEqLtMCi3PpwEJo9JspG66udf) as a *single-source partner*.

Plesk hosting and CDN from a single source - no provider hopping, fast configuration, clear support channel.

### We use [Creoline](https://www.creoline.com/ref/tYq4UkumEqLtMCi3PpwEJo9JspG66udf) as the CDN provider - the same infrastructure our Shopware servers run on.

Instead of juggling multiple vendors, everything runs on one platform: Plesk hosting, backup, monitoring and CDN from a single source. Configuration and support become significantly faster - when issues arise, you know who to call.

POPs

### Europe-wide edge nodes

Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Vienna, Paris, London - images are served from the geographically nearest node.

Origin pull

### First request caches automatically

On the first call of an asset the CDN pulls it from origin and caches it across all POPs. Subsequent calls come from cache.

TLS 1.3

### Modern encryption

All CDN connections use TLS 1.3 with HSTS - the same security standard as the origin shop.

Performance features

## More than just *geographic proximity*.

Image resize, auto-format detection, Brotli - the CDN turns Shopware images into exactly what Core Web Vitals rewards.

Image resize

### On-the-fly via URL params

Images are generated in any required resolution on the fly - no pre-generation in Shopware needed. Useful e.g. for responsive `srcset`.

Auto-WebP

### Format detection per browser

The CDN detects via `Accept` header whether the browser supports WebP/AVIF - and serves the smallest format available.

Brotli

### CSS/JS compressed

Text assets are compressed with Brotli on the CDN - 15-25% smaller bundles than Gzip.

Cache tags

### Selective invalidation

No need to nuke everything at once: cache tags let you invalidate just the images of a single product, for example.

Origin shield

### Protection from traffic spikes

Even when 10,000 visitors hit a new collection at once - the origin only sees one request per asset.

Stale-while-revalidate

### Never empty cache

Even when an asset is being updated, the visitor gets the old version instantly - the new one is fetched in the background.
