Platform

One network for every kind of delivery

From live video to multi-gigabyte downloads, Meridian keeps content close to the viewer and origins protected behind the edge.

Global edge PoPs

48 points of presence across six continents route each request over anycast to the closest healthy node.

Adaptive streaming

Native HLS and MPEG-DASH packaging with per-viewer bitrate selection and instant cache fill for live and VOD.

Large-file delivery

Resumable, range-aware transfer for installers, datasets and game builds — offloaded entirely from your origin.

Real-time analytics

Per-PoP traffic, cache-hit ratio and origin-shield savings, streamed to your dashboard within seconds.

Origin shield & DDoS

A shielding tier absorbs volumetric attacks and collapses origin fetches, keeping your servers quiet and safe.

API & SDKs

Configure zones, purge paths and pull metrics from a REST API, Terraform provider and typed SDKs.

How it works

Point your origin once. We handle the rest.

Three steps to go from a single origin to a globally cached, edge-accelerated delivery footprint.

Connect your origin

Add a CNAME or an origin URL. Meridian validates the endpoint and issues a managed TLS certificate automatically.

We cache at the edge

Content is pulled once through the origin shield and replicated to every PoP with your cache and TTL rules.

Viewers hit the nearest node

Anycast routes each request to the closest healthy PoP — bytes travel the last mile, not the whole planet.

Since we moved delivery to Meridian's edge, our rebuffer ratio dropped 63% across EU and MENA — and our origin traffic is a tenth of what it used to be.

FAQ

Questions, answered

How does caching at the edge work?
On the first request for an asset, the nearest PoP fetches it once through the origin shield and stores it according to your cache and TTL rules. Every subsequent viewer in that region is served directly from the edge with no round trip to your origin.
Which media formats are supported?
HLS and MPEG-DASH for adaptive video, progressive MP4, and any static or large binary file. Live and video-on-demand share the same delivery path and dashboard.
How do I migrate an existing origin?
Point a CNAME at your Meridian zone or give us your origin URL. Certificates are provisioned automatically and traffic can be shifted gradually with weighted routing — no downtime and no client changes.
What does the SLA cover?
Business and Enterprise plans carry a 99.99% monthly uptime commitment with service credits. Real-time availability for every PoP is published on our public status page.
