Built for media, not generic objects

Northlane sits between your origin and the audience, handling cache, routing and failover so playback stays smooth.

▶

Video delivery

HTTP delivery for MP4, HLS and DASH, served from the nearest healthy pop with range-request support.

↯

Low latency

Anycast entry and regional caches cut round-trips for first-byte time and segment fetches.

◌

Global network

Points of presence at major exchanges, so traffic stays on well-peered paths whenever possible.

▣

HTTP caching

Object cache with TTL, cache-control honoring and stale-while-revalidate for popular titles.

◇

Origin shielding

A regional shield absorbs cache misses so origin bandwidth and connection counts stay predictable.

⌁

Automatic routing

Unhealthy nodes, saturated links and regional outages are drained without a configuration change.

Routed to the nearest healthy edge

Each request is steered using live latency, loss and capacity signals from the surrounding pops.

Plain HTTP, familiar URLs
