Overview

Bunny.net is an independent CDN and edge storage platform known for competitive pricing and straightforward setup. It offers a global network of 120+ PoPs, edge storage (BunnyStorage), image optimisation (BunnyOptimizer), and a WordPress plugin for easy integration. Bunny.net is frequently recommended as a cost-effective CDN alternative, particularly for teams that want transparent, usage-based pricing without proxy complexity. Many WordPress performance experts recommend pairing Bunny.net CDN with caching plugins like FlyingPress or LiteSpeed Cache for a high-performance, low-cost stack.

Common use cases

  • Serving large media files or downloads from edge storage to reduce origin load
  • Teams wanting transparent bandwidth pricing without monthly minimums

Why it matters for B2B

B2B teams hosting asset-heavy pages (product images, video, downloadable resources) benefit from BunnyStorage — offloading static files to edge storage reduces origin bandwidth costs significantly. The transparent per-GB pricing means costs scale predictably with traffic growth, unlike flat-fee CDN plans that over-charge low-traffic sites.
