Hey guys! Your site looks awesome! Sorry for my noobness, but what is a serverless CDN, who is it for, and why do I need it?

Serverless CDN is the term we use to describe a CDN that uses no servers for the content itself.

It's actually a Peer-to-Peer Content Delivery Network. Big content providers (like Netflix, Youtube, ESPN) can use that to deliver their content more efficiently and improve their users' experience. That results in less rebuffering for their users and lower costs on infrastructure.
