Question
Can I use Cloudflare with my OnApp CDN?
Environment
OnApp CDN
Answer
Is it possible to create a second CDN url from the OnApp CDN to deliver the content using the Cloudflare URL as an origin?
Technically, this is possible. But we do not recommend our clients to serve their web content with "CDN over CDN", as these multiple layers of redirection may trade off the website performance and increase the complexity of investigation when issues occur.
Additional Info
Also, by using a Cloudflare url as an origin, we will have to set up "ignore cookies" advanced feature for your CDN as Cloudflare sets specific cookies on the web header. Without ignoring them, our CDN will treat the same file as unique and thus impact the cache hit ratio.
