This new service uses NKN\u2019s global shared network of servers across many different platforms including data centers by many of the top cloud providers such as AWS, Google Cloud, and DigitalOcean as well as edge locations including home WiFi routers, NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices, and more. The result is a CDN with many points of presence and embedded quality controls to ensure availability and performance.<\/p>\n<p>nCDN is currently in limited beta for selected enterprise and Small Medium Business customers.
