A content delivery network is a fancy caching (plain or reverse) proxy. These networked information services enhance the speed and reliability of websites by putting their hardware physically closer to clients. Requests to the origin (in reverse proxy configuration) or media assets like images or video (in either configuration) are served through the network from the system deemed closest to the client, even if the origin is unavailable.
