A Single CDN Isn't A Silver Bullet—It's A Point Of Failure
Mehdi Daoudi is the CEO and cofounder of Catchpoint, the Internet Resilience company. In tech, we love to talk about resilience. We architect for 'five nines,' build across multiple clouds and tout global high availability. But then we quietly route all our critical traffic through one content delivery network (CDN) and call it a day. If your entire digital delivery strategy hinges on a single CDN, you're not building for resilience. You're building for convenience and hoping nothing goes wrong. The Illusion Of Safety CDNs are fantastic! They've enabled us to have fast experiences since the late 1990s. They reduce latency, absorb spikes in traffic and cache content closer to users. But somewhere along the way, we stopped thinking of them as performance accelerators and started treating them like infallible gatekeepers. That's a dangerous shift. Even the best CDNs go down. Outages at major providers have taken down streaming platforms, e-commerce giants and financial services in seconds. Domain name system (DNS) propagation delays, border gateway protocol (BGP) leaks, transport layer security (TLS) misconfigurations—any of these can cascade into hours of downtime. And if you're locked into a single CDN, you have nowhere to go when that happens. The Contradiction Of Multi-Cloud With Only One CDN Enterprises spend millions to go multi-cloud. They distribute compute, storage and databases across AWS, Azure and GCP, often in complex configurations that require deep architectural alignment. But when it comes to the CDN layer—the literal entry point to your app—they often rely on a single vendor. You wouldn't run your back-end on just one availability zone. Why do it at the edge? It's the digital equivalent of putting a state-of-the-art alarm system on your house, then leaving the front door wide open. CDN outages don't just create latency. They can stall transactions, frustrate users and erode brand credibility and trust with your users and buyers. In industries like e-commerce, fintech and media, those impacts have a direct line to the bottom line. Understanding The Single-CDN Risks Organizations that rely on a single CDN often have no fallback when disaster strikes. Looking at the Cloudflare and Google Cloud outage in June 2025, Cloudflare services such as Workers KV, Access, WARP and Workers AI experienced significant disruptions. The impact extended to numerous high-profile platforms, including Spotify, Discord and OpenAI, all of which rely on Google Cloud, Cloudflare or both. This incident highlights the risks of single-CDN architectures. But here's the kicker: many companies not only rely heavily on a single CDN for critical traffic delivery—they also depend on that same provider for performance reporting. It's a bit like having your accountant serve as your bookkeeper, payroll manager and auditor all in one. While convenient, this kind of consolidation can make it harder to maintain independent oversight. Is that really a position of strength? When visibility and accountability are delegated to the very system you rely on, you're not measuring performance—you're just accepting a version of reality that may not serve your users or your business. While users experienced disruptions during the June 2025 outage, Google Cloud's official status page continued to show 'all green' for nearly an hour. For teams depending solely on provider telemetry, this translates to lost time, missed service level agreements (SLAs) and zero actionable insight. The Case For Multi-CDN: Not Just About Outages Going multi-CDN isn't just insurance against failure. It's also about performance, cost and control. • Regional Optimization: Different CDNs perform better in different parts of the world. Consider using the best in each region. • Vendor Leverage: Competition drives cost savings. If one CDN is underperforming or overcharging, you can shift traffic away. • Feature Flexibility: Some CDNs excel at edge compute, others at video delivery or TLS offload. Why limit yourself to one toolbox? A properly implemented multi-CDN architecture gives companies control when it matters most—during change events, rollouts or disasters. While setting up a multi-CDN strategy requires effort, it's not rocket science—and the tools exist. What's missing is the mindset. Too many teams still default to one CDN because it's 'easy' or 'standard.' But in today's hyper-distributed digital economy, that becomes a liability. Think of it this way—you wouldn't put your production database in a single region or run your back-end on a single VM. So why put your user experience in the hands of a single CDN? Building Resilience With A Multi-CDN Strategy To reduce risk, improve performance and take back control, reflect on these key considerations: • Redundancy By Design: Route traffic across multiple CDNs to avoid a single point of failure. Maintain availability even during provider outages. • Intelligent Load Balancing: Use smart routing and failover logic to respond in real time to availability, latency or geographic shifts in demand. • Routine Failover Testing: Simulate outages on a regular basis to ensure both your systems and teams respond effectively when it matters. • Independent Performance Benchmarking: Rely on third-party testing to measure CDN performance. Don't just take your vendor's word for it. • Localized Visibility: Understand performance at a micro-regional level, not just globally. What works in Frankfurt may fall short in Mumbai. • Strategic Optimization, Not Guesswork: Know which CDN is best for edge compute, static delivery or TLS offload and allocate traffic accordingly. Resilience doesn't happen by accident. It's not just about the cloud or the back-end—it's about every part of the stack, including the edge. If your entire architecture depends on one CDN—and you're trusting that same provider to tell you everything's fine—you're not building for resilience. You're hoping for luck. One last piece of advice: If your organization chooses to stick with a single CDN, don't double down on that risk by moving your DNS to the same vendor. When both your content delivery and your traffic control live under the same roof, any failure becomes total, and your ability to recover disappears. Redundancy isn't optional. It's how resilience begins. Forbes Technology Council is an invitation-only community for world-class CIOs, CTOs and technology executives. Do I qualify?

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy fears 'abuse' of multi-club ownership
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has warned that teams and individuals engaged in multi-club ownership must be 'very careful' not to overstep rules. The practice of one person or business entity holding stakes in various clubs is far from a new one, with Premier League giants Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea among those that have 'sister clubs' in the game, from Girona to Nice and Strasbourg. While it can have its benefits, such as aiding player development through loan moves, it can also cause significant issues for clubs and their fans, as exemplified by the situation Crystal Palace have found themselves in this summer. The Eagles, whose FA Cup victory earned their place in the Europa League, were instead demoted to the Conference League by European football's governing body UEFA on July 11 after it determined that as of March 1, American businessman John Textor had control or influence at Palace and French club Lyon. UEFA rules state that one or more clubs deemed to have common ownership cannot play in the same competition, with Lyon edging out Palace for the sole Europa League place because of their comparatively higher league finish last season. Textor has since sold his stakes in the south London club, but the Eagles still face a hearing with the Court of Arbitration for Sport on August 8 before they learn the verdict on their European fate on August 11. Discussing his views on multi-club ownership in an interview with Gary Neville for The Overlap, brought to you by SkyBet, Levy said the issue is a 'very important' one when it comes to the sustainability of today's game. Pressed by Neville if he was against multi-club ownership, the Spurs chief said: 'I think they have to be very careful. 'I think the idea that one club is involved with lots of different clubs, with the money involved today, I think it has to be controlled carefully.' Explaining that such schemes could be used to 'abuse' football's financial control measures, Levy continued: 'It worries me a little bit because there's so much money in the game now, and you only need one owner to do something inappropriate and it would impact the whole confidence from sponsors and broadcasters in the European game. 'So, I think it needs very tight control.' The current transfer window has seen more activity at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium than fans have been accustomed to in years past, with the likes of Mohammed Kudus and now Joao Palhinha following new manager Thomas Frank through the door as the Lilywhites prepare to return to Champions League football courtesy of their Europa League victory despite finishing 17th in the league last season. Asked if he feels he gets enough credit for what he can control at the club, Levy replied: 'When I'm not here, I'm sure I'll get the credit.'
