Traffic Allowances for the Salesforce CDN

Each byte of traffic that’s requested, whether it’s an image or a complex report, counts toward your content delivery network’s (CDN) usage amount. The amount of traffic allowed over a CDN depends on the license that you purchase. Understand how to monitor your Salesforce CDN usage and what happens if you exceed the terabyte limit.

Required Editions

Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
Available in: Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited Editions.
Applies to: LWR, Aura, and Visualforce sites

Within each production environment, you can define multiple domains in a sandbox, but only one custom domain associated with a sandbox org can use the Salesforce CDN.

Traffic Allowances by License Type

If you have any of these items, you’re entitled to 48 terabytes of traffic per year and 10 single certificate domains.

  • Salesforce CMS, Commerce Apps, or External Apps
  • A Customer Community license, a Customer Community Plus license, or a Partner Community license

If you require more traffic for your org, contact your account representative to purchase additional terabytes. If you exceed the traffic allowance, a representative contacts you to discuss purchasing more terabytes for your business needs. To request more single certificate domains, you can log a ticket with Salesforce Customer Support.

Note
Note If you exceed the traffic limit, we don’t shut down your site or move remove your domain from our CDN.

CDN Usage Reports

You can use two reports to check your Salesforce CDN usage. A CDN Usage report is part of the Experience Management Package found in AppExchange. You can also create a custom report type with Domains as the primary object.
