A CDN isn't one cache. It's hundreds of independent ones, and most of them are cold.
Cloudflare alone runs 300+ data centers, and each keeps its own cache. A page cached in Frankfurt is still ice cold in Tokyo, so the first visitor per region pays the full origin round trip. In our measurement of 408,000 CDN requests, a cache miss was 3.5x slower than a hit at the median.
warmup.rocks fixes that by requesting your pages from 42 countries on 6 continents on a schedule. Each request enters the CDN network in a different region and fills the edge location it lands in: 90+ locations per warming pass.
What makes it different: verification. We record the cache status (cf-cache-status, x-cache and equivalents) of every single response and show you the hit ratio per edge location, per run. Warming without verification is hoping.

Most cache warmers run from one server, so they only warm the one CDN edge location that server happens to hit. CDNs like Cloudflare cache per data center, 300+ of them, and a HIT in Frankfurt says nothing about Singapore.

Developers, agencies and store owners who run sites behind a CDN (Cloudflare, Fastly, CloudFront, Akamai, bunny.net) and serve visitors in more than one region. Typical cases:
warmup.rocks's answer
I run a web agency in Switzerland, and for years I believed our sites were fast because we put them behind Cloudflare and saw HIT in the headers. Then I measured from other continents: pages that loaded in milliseconds from Zurich took multiple seconds from Tokyo or Sรฃo Paulo, because each edge location keeps its own cache and most of them were cold.
I built a warmer for our own client sites first, then measured 408,000 CDN requests and found a miss is 3.5ร slower than a hit at the median. That data convinced me this should be a product.
warmup.rocks's answer
The whole thing runs on a plain VPS behind Cloudflare, which keeps it fast and cheap without a pile of infrastructure.

Choose between Apache or Nginx as your web server and configure it to handle API requests. For Apache, use an .htaccess file in your project directory to enable clean URLs and route all traffic through your main PHP file. Nginx requires similar adjustments in its server block configuration. - Source: dev.to / 12 months ago

The license was notably used in web server software, such as in projects that led to the creation of the Apache HTTP Server. Its source disclosure requirement helped build trust among early developers, and community improvements drove rapid innovation during the early stages of the internet. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
Enterprise Software Frameworks: Companies developing robust, scalable solutions now favor licenses that not only protect against unauthorized commercial exploitation but also encourage contributions. Just as the Apache HTTP Server has been a success story for open source, frameworks built on the HSQLDB License have gained traction for their fairness. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
Web Servers and Infrastructure Projects: Projects like the widely used Apache HTTP Server emphasize stability and developer fairness. SISSL 1.1 has been utilized in similar infrastructure projects to provide legal certainty while preventing exploitation of contributions. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
