Your website faster, more secure, worldwide
Three complementary services: DNS management, global acceleration, and advanced protection, integrated directly into your Horizon-Cumulus client area.
DNS management integrated into your client area
No more accessing third-party panels to modify your DNS records. Our team manages your DNS zone directly from our global Anycast infrastructure.
Every domain hosted or transferred to Horizon-Cumulus benefits from complete DNS management: fast resolution, high availability, and optimal configuration for email and security.
Anycast Network
Your DNS queries are resolved by the geographically closest server, delivering resolution in milliseconds anywhere in the world.
GeoDNS
Differentiated DNS responses based on visitor location. Ideal for directing traffic to the best-performing server for each region.
Automatic Failover
In the event of a server failure, DNS automatically switches to a backup server, with no manual intervention and no downtime.
All record types
A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV, CAA. Complete management of all record types from our interface or by our team.
DNSSEC
Cryptographic signing of your DNS zone to prevent cache poisoning and ensure DNS response integrity.
SPF / DKIM / DMARC
Optimal configuration of email authentication records to protect your domain against spoofing and improve deliverability.
Resolution in milliseconds
DNS is the first step of every visit. Slow DNS adds delay before your page even starts loading. Our Anycast network ensures ultra-fast resolution from anywhere in the world, directly contributing to your Core Web Vitals and user experience.
Zero downtime during migrations
When migrating a site to Horizon-Cumulus, our integrated DNS management lets you switch records instantly from the same panel. No coordination between two providers, no forgotten TTL. The transition is seamless for your visitors.
Your content, delivered everywhere
A global network of cache servers that brings your site closer to every visitor (images, scripts, full pages) for drastically reduced load times.
120+ global points of presence
Your static content is replicated across 120+ servers on 6 continents. Every visitor connects to the nearest point, dramatically reducing latency whether your audience is in Montreal, Paris, Tokyo, or São Paulo.
Perma-Cache
Unlike traditional caching, your files remain at the edge indefinitely. Cache hit rate near 100%, even for rarely visited pages.
BunnyOptimizer
Automatic image optimization: WebP/AVIF conversion, adaptive resizing, and intelligent compression with no perceptible quality loss.
HTTP/3 and Brotli
Next-generation protocol with Brotli compression for transfers up to 20% lighter than gzip. Native QUIC support for even faster connections.
Origin Shield
An intermediate cache layer that protects your origin server. Instead of receiving requests from 120+ POPs, your server only communicates with a single Shield node, massively reducing load and bandwidth consumption.
Real-time statistics
Dashboard with traffic, cache hit rate, bandwidth, errors, and performance by region. Complete visibility into your CDN usage.
The real-world impact on your site
CDN benefits are not abstract. They translate directly into your performance metrics, search rankings, and hosting bill.
Up to 80% faster
Drastically reduced load times through edge caching and static resource optimization.
Core Web Vitals and SEO
Direct improvement to LCP, FID, and CLS — Google ranking factors since 2021.
60–90% bandwidth reduction
Your origin server handles a fraction of the traffic. Less bandwidth consumed, less server load.
Integrated management
Configuration, cache purge, and statistics: everything is accessible from your Horizon-Cumulus client area.
Filter threats before they reach your server
Shield adds a security layer upstream of your hosting. Malicious traffic is identified and blocked at the network level, before even reaching your infrastructure, with no impact on legitimate visitor performance.
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
Real-time filtering rules against SQL injection, XSS, directory traversal, and OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities. Automatic updates.
DDoS Protection
Automatic mitigation of volumetric and application-layer attacks (layers 3/4/7). Absorption of illegitimate traffic without service interruption.
Bot Management
Identification of malicious bots vs legitimate crawlers (Googlebot, Bing). Blocking of scraping, credential stuffing, and automated spam.
Rate Limiting
Request limiting per IP and per interval. Protection against brute force attacks on login pages and sensitive endpoints.
Geo-blocking
Access restriction by country or region. Block traffic from geographic areas irrelevant to your business.
Hotlink Protection
Prevent other sites from directly embedding your images and media. Protect your bandwidth and original content.
Invisible threats blocked
Thousands of malicious requests are filtered daily without any intervention on your part.
Reduced server load
Fewer requests reach your origin server, improving performance for legitimate traffic.
Simplified compliance
WAF and detailed access logs simplify security audits and regulatory compliance.
Integrated management
Configuration, reports, and alerts: everything is centralized in your Horizon-Cumulus client area.
