I'm a Product Solution Architect, focusing on CDN and ESA (Edge Security Acceleration)
FollowAttackers can bypass ESA and hit your origin directly. Origin Protection whitelists ESA POP IPs at your load balancer or firewall, so only vetted traffic gets through.
ESA's multi-level cache gives every request multiple chances to hit cache: edge, regional, and cold-storage tiers, before reaching your origin.
ESA Smart Routing solves this by leveraging 3,200+ global points of presence to continuously probe network conditions and select the optimal path for .
Operations depend on logs. Alibaba Cloud ESA provides log delivery. Agent Skills let AI assistants query logs with natural language.
The most common question I get from ESA customers: "can I serve static files from OSS and route API calls to ECS - under a single domain?" This PoC proves the answer is yes, and shows exactly how.
As SaaS platforms scale, managing hundreds or thousands of customer-facing domains becomes a critical operational bottleneck.
