In FY22, CDNetworks reports over 52% net profit increase, with
revenues of CDNetworks' security services increasing by 27%.
CDNetworks continues to expand its global presence following its
acquisition by Wangsu in 2017.
SINGAPORE, Feb. 8, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- CDNetworks, the global-leading Content Delivery
Network (CDN) and Edge Service provider, is proud to announce
upgrades to its operation strategies and new product portfolios
based on its acquisition by Wangsu. The synergies derived from this
acquisition resulted in the highest net profit since the company's
acquisition, and strategically position CDNetworks for increases in
revenue in security and edge services worldwide.
The Upgraded Operation Strategies are Creating Momentum in
Consecutive Years:
Over the past few years, the synergies derived from resources,
customers, and R&D have spurred CDNetworks to align its
customer-oriented operations with its parent company Wangsu.
- Product Portfolios: To strengthen its presence in today's global market,
CDNetworks rebuilt product portfolios and changed its core business
from the Content Delivery Network (CDN) only, to include
security and edge services, with CDN as a key component.
Based on its core CDN infrastructure, CDNetworks added solutions
and services such as Media Delivery, Cloud
Security, Zero-Trust, and Edge
Computing. Combining the power of these customer-oriented
products, the latest product portfolios empowers CDNetworks to
provide truly comprehensive services that address real-world
challenges. These new product portfolios have accelerated
CDNetworks' ability to achieve global scale.
- Marketplace Strategy: As a company founded in Korea,
CDNetworks expanded to meet the needs of customers around the world
and set up 14 global offices and 10 R&D centers. In 2019, with
an eye on multiple emerging markets in South East Asia (SSEA), CDNetworks moved
its international headquarters to Singapore and set up a 24/7 customer support
center in Malaysia. CDNetworks
also built local support teams at key locations worldwide,
including Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, South
Korea, UK, US, and China.
With these local Points of Presence (PoPs) in place, CDNetworks was
positioned to create deeper collaborations with customers by
communicating with them in their native language in order to
explore their requirements and provide customized solutions that
meet their business demands.
This strategy met with unparalleled success. The SSEA region
reports 58.9% revenue growth in FY22. Total regional revenue of
SSEA and Greater China together
have accounted for about 45% of CDNetworks' global market. This
remarkable performance will bring more confidences in the further
investment of localization to win more markets in worldwide.
- Operational Optimization: To support new product
portfolios, CDNetworks leveraged the resources of its parent
company, Wangsu, to capture, coordinate, and collaborate
cross-company synergies, and to integrate sufficient resources in
daily operations to bring new products to market. At the same time,
CDNetworks streamlined product development and maintenance, and
deprecated some long-tail products in order to increase
company-wide operational efficiencies.
- Resource Expansion: After the acquisition, CDNetworks
has accelerated the deployment of its global Points of Presence
(PoPs) to ensure the highest levels of speed and availability in
hard-to-reach markets, such as China, Russia, Brazil, and the Middle East. With over 200,000 servers, more
than 200 ISP partners deployed worldwide, and over 2,800 global
PoPs, CDNetworks is now uniquely positioned to offer an unmatched
network presence in many emerging markets and beyond.

CDNetworks Envisions a Bright Future
Addressing the future direction of CDNetworks' product
development, Doyle Deng, Head of
Global Marketing and Product of CDNetworks, said, "The inherent
limitations of traditional CDNs make them unable to meet the
demands of elasticity and flexibility required for content caching
and delivery. And with the development of new technologies like
edge computing, big data, IOT, and other interconnected and
cooperative trends, the edge is becoming the new arena for
cybersecurity. For these reasons, CDNetworks is investing a
significant amount of resources into edge research and
development."
Mr. Deng added, "In 2021,
CDNetworks, together with our parent company, Wangsu, invested
roughly US$68 million toward
developing cloud security, edge computing businesses, and other key
innovation areas. From these investments, CDNetworks has been able
to provide premium solutions and support for media streaming,
e-commerce, gaming acceleration, e-learning, and other online
platforms that deliver solutions and services with low latency,
high reliability, and scalability. Going forward, we intend to
strengthen communications with customers to deliver more
customer-oriented solutions for different industrial
scenarios."
