Google Cloud CDN serves engineering and DevOps teams managing high-traffic applications requiring global edge delivery and low latency. Marketing and business teams benefit indirectly through faster load times but never interact with the console directly. Organizations already committed to GCP will find native integration seamless, while teams seeking simple flat-rate pricing may find the usage model unpredictable.

65/100
CloudFront excels for engineering and DevOps teams already embedded in the AWS ecosystem who need granular control over edge caching and security policies. Marketing and content teams benefit from the performance improvements but cannot manage configurations independently due to complexity. Product teams lacking dedicated infrastructure resources typically struggle with the steep learning curve and variable cost forecasting.
Adoption RiskExpected friction, training effort, and behavior change needed to move teams onto the alternative.
