# CDN (Content Delivery Network)

If not turned off, translations will automatically be published to our CDN.

There is no need to download translations or to redeploy your app for changes to take effect.

{% hint style="info" %}
Optionally you can also configure the publishing to be done in private mode (requires API-Key to [access the published translations](/integration/api.md#fetch-private-namespace-resources)):

![](/files/oJqTN1Q7WNzI9KHCKSte)
{% endhint %}

![](/files/-MTbYmLd4JojKYPSo2-3)

Under the hood, we are leveraging the power of [Amazon CloudFront](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/) with edge locations all over the world.

There's also the possibility to define a custom [Cache-Control max-age](/more/caching.md) value per version, which can [optimize the latency](/more/latency-optimization-tips-for-optimal-performance.md) even more.

We suggest to create an additional [production](/guides-tips-and-tricks/going-production.md#use-the-locize-cdn) version and enable caching on it.
