Published price lists, checked August 2026, put 100 TB a month of European delivery anywhere from $415 to $6,965. That is a 17x spread for comparable bytes. This comparison (evaluated November 2026, list prices as checked August 2026) gives you a scored provider table, latency thresholds by region, a GDPR contract checklist and a workload decision matrix. At 100 TB a month, published price lists checked August 2026 show BlazingCDN at $415, bunny.net at $500 on its Volume network, CDN77 at $990, and Amazon CloudFront at $6,965 pay as you go for transfer alone. For European traffic, price differences between CDNs are usually larger than latency differences in Western Europe. Latency gaps open up in Central and Eastern Europe and in Turkey. ## **How to evaluate a Europe CDN: the metrics that decide it** Medians from Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam and Paris (the FLAP cities) flatter almost every provider, because peering there is dense. The evaluation should weight the markets where routing is thin. Measure these five signals per country, not as a continental average: - **Cache-hit p95 TTFB:** this blog's thresholds are under 60 ms in Western Europe, under 110 ms in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), and under 140 ms in Turkey and the Caucasus. - **Cache-hit ratio by country and point of presence (PoP):** a 95% global ratio can hide a 70% ratio on a cold PoP serving Romania. A cold PoP pushes p95 toward origin round-trip times. - **TLS handshake p99:** values above 250 ms usually point to a distant PoP, poor peering with a mobile carrier or missing session resumption. - **Origin offload:** static catalogs with an origin shield and request coalescing should reach 98% or more. Below that, your egress bill from the origin cloud quietly erodes the CDN savings. - **IPv6 and protocol mix:** report IPv4 and IPv6 p95 TTFB separately. Some European mobile networks are IPv6-majority, so a weak IPv6 path hurts real users even when IPv4 synthetic tests look clean. If HTTP/3 (RFC 9114) matters for your lossy mobile audiences, record which vendors negotiate it. ## **Which is the fastest CDN in Europe?** No single provider is the fastest CDN in Europe for every country. In the FLAP cities, major CDNs typically land within a few milliseconds of each other on cache hits. In Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, the Baltics and Turkey, the answer depends on which PoP actually serves each ISP. Only per-country p95 measurements on your own objects settle it. For a published reference point, BlazingCDN measured June 2026 on a 100 MB HTTPS download: 27 ms and 1.12 Gb/s in Europe. Treat any vendor figure, including that one, as a starting hypothesis to test rather than a ranking. ### Latency notes by country and region | Region | Typical serving path | p95 cache-hit TTFB target (this blog's threshold) | What to check | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Germany, Netherlands, UK, France | Local PoPs at major internet exchanges | Under 60 ms | IPv6 versus IPv4 gap, TLS p99 | | Spain, Portugal, Italy | Madrid, Lisbon, Milan or Marseille, sometimes backhauled to Paris | Under 80 ms | Whether Portuguese mobile carriers stay in-country | | Poland, Czechia, Romania, Bulgaria, Baltics | Warsaw, Prague, Vienna, Bucharest, Sofia, or backhaul to Frankfurt | Under 110 ms | Serving PoP per ISP, cache-hit ratio per PoP | | Turkey and the Caucasus | Istanbul, or backhaul via Sofia or Frankfurt | Under 140 ms | In-country presence, peak-hour variance | The CEE and Turkey rows decide most European bake-offs, because that is where serving paths diverge between providers. Most CDNs expose the serving location in a response header. Examples include x-amz-cf-pop on Amazon CloudFront, cf-ray on Cloudflare and x-served-by on Fastly. Log that header in real user monitoring (RUM) beacons so you can attribute a slow p95 to a specific PoP rather than to the vendor as a whole. ## **European CDN providers compared at 100 TB a month** | Provider | Cost at 100 TB/month (published price lists, checked August 2026) | Billing model | European strength | Honest limitation | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | BlazingCDN | $415 | Progressive tiers, one rate for US, Europe and Asia, no request fees | NVMe SSD servers; Europe 27 ms and 1.12 Gb/s, measured June 2026 | No HTTP/3, WebSockets, WAF or DDoS mitigation | | bunny.net | $500 Volume network, $1,000 Standard | Per TB, regional rates on Standard | Slovenian-owned EU company, fast self-service setup | Volume network trades PoP density for price | | CDN77 | $990 (plan covering up to 250 TB) | Volume plans | Prague-based team, video delivery focus | Plan steps mean paying for unused headroom | | Amazon CloudFront | From $1,000 flat-rate Premium; $6,965 pay as you go (transfer only) | Flat plans or per GB plus request fees | Native AWS integration | Pay-as-you-go egress and request charges stack up | | Gcore | About EUR 2,000 at list | Per GB, commitments for discounts | Luxembourg-domiciled, edge compute alongside CDN | List price high until negotiated | | KeyCDN | $2,600 (North America and Europe) | Pay as you go per GB by region | Swiss company, simple setup | Asia traffic doubles the bill to $5,200 | | Cloudflare Enterprise | Widely reported near $5,000/month | Annual contract | Integrated security suite | Enterprise price not published | | Medianova, Fastly, Akamai | Quote-based or not published at this volume | Contract | Turkey and Balkans (Medianova); programmable edge (Fastly); enterprise scale (Akamai) | No public price to benchmark against | On cost at 100 TB a month, the three cheapest published options for Europe are BlazingCDN, bunny.net Volume and CDN77, all under $1,000. BlazingCDN publishes this blog, so verify this ranking on your own traffic; the 14-day testing period on real production traffic exists for exactly that. ### Vendor notes **BlazingCDN** is a pay-as-you-go CDN for video on demand, live HLS and DASH, software updates, game patches and large archives. Its edge runs on NVMe SSD servers with Anycast routing, and it reports a 96%+ average cache hit ratio. For the price difference against the closest low-cost option, the [**BlazingCDN vs bunny.net comparison**](https://blazingcdn.com/vs/bunny-net/) breaks down both billing models. Its limits: it is a delivery layer without WAF or DDoS mitigation, and it has no free tier. **bunny.net** is the default pick for European SMBs that want self-service and an EU-owned vendor. **CDN77** is credible for OTT and live video at a predictable plan price. **Gcore** suits teams that want edge compute and CDN under one Luxembourg entity. **KeyCDN** fits small static workloads billed in Swiss francs or US dollars. **Medianova** earns a place when Turkish traffic is material. **Fastly** leads on instant purge and programmable logic for APIs. **Amazon CloudFront**, **Cloudflare** and **Akamai** win when security, cloud consolidation or global breadth outweighs unit cost. BlazingCDN is not their peer in platform breadth. ## **CDN Europe pricing: worked cost at 100 TB and 200 TB** As of November 2026, BlazingCDN charges from $5 per TB down to $2.50 per TB at volume, with one rate for US, Europe and Asia and no request fees: 100 TB a month costs $415 and 200 TB costs $765. Current rates are on the [**BlazingCDN CDN pricing page**](https://blazingcdn.com/pricing/). The 200 TB total comes from marginal tiers: 5 TB at $5.00 ($25), plus 20 TB at $4.50 ($90), plus 75 TB at $4.00 ($300), plus 100 TB at $3.50 ($350), which equals $765. That is an effective $3.83 per TB. At the same 200 TB, published price lists checked August 2026 show Amazon CloudFront at $11,965 pay as you go for transfer alone or $3,500 on Premium. KeyCDN runs $3,600 to $11,200 depending on the continent, and Google Cloud CDN about $10,500. Bandwidth is only one line of the bill. Model four more lines separately: - **Request fees:** a 30 KB image workload generates roughly 33 million requests per TB, so per-request pricing can outweigh bandwidth for small objects. - **Regional multipliers:** if 15% of your "European" audience is actually in Turkey or Asia, regional rates apply to that share. - **Origin egress:** every percentage point of lost offload is billed by your cloud provider. - **Plan headroom:** flat plans charge for capacity whether you use it or not. Below about 46 TB a month, the ranking changes. Amazon CloudFront Business ($200 for 50 TB) and Cloudflare Pro or Business ($25 and $250 a month) can cost less than any metered rate, so small sites should start there. ## **GDPR and data residency: what to verify in the contract** A "GDPR compliant" badge on a CDN pricing page proves nothing about your data flows. Under GDPR, IP addresses in request logs are personal data. That makes the CDN a processor under Article 28, and every location that stores or reads those logs matters. Verify the following in writing: - Where request logs are stored, for how long, and whether IPs are truncated before storage. - Whether delivery for a hostname can be restricted to EEA PoPs, and what happens on failover. - Where the control plane and analytics pipeline run. - Whether support staff outside the EEA can access production systems or logs. - The sub-processor list, the notice period for changes, and your right to object. - The transfer mechanism for non-EEA processing: Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or certification under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, in force since July 2023. EU ownership simplifies the conversation but does not replace these answers. Conversely, a US-parented provider with a sound transfer mechanism can pass a reasonable data protection impact assessment (DPIA). For authenticated or health-adjacent traffic, use EEA-only routing, disable global failover on those hostnames, and keep non-EEA analytics to anonymised aggregates. Run every shortlisted vendor, BlazingCDN included, through the same list. ## **Best CDN for Europe by workload: decision matrix** | Workload | First fit | Second fit | Deciding test | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | VOD, software and game downloads above 50 TB | BlazingCDN | CDN77 or bunny.net | Cost at your volume, throughput on large objects | | Live streaming with interactive features | Fastly | CDN77 | Segment p95 TTFB at peak, WebSocket needs | | Regulated or public-sector sites | bunny.net or Gcore | KeyCDN | Contract answers to the GDPR checklist | | Turkey and Balkan audiences | Medianova | Gcore | p95 TTFB from Turkish ISPs under 140 ms | | Web apps needing WAF and bot management | Cloudflare | Akamai | Security feature fit, then cost | | AWS-native stacks | Amazon CloudFront | BlazingCDN as second CDN for heavy files | Egress share on large objects | The cheapest Europe CDN wins only on heavy static workloads; security, interactivity or Turkish reach each move a different vendor to the top. ### Running the European bake-off Run a two-week RUM test from Poland, Romania and Portugal, the three markets most likely to separate vendors. BlazingCDN can run as a second CDN behind DNS with a weighted traffic split, which lets you compare it against an incumbent on the same users. This blog's rule: if the p95 difference is under 15 ms in every important market, let price and contract terms decide. If it exceeds 40 ms in any important market, a cheaper invoice will not fix the user experience. ## **FAQ: choosing a CDN in Europe** ### What is the best CDN in Europe for high-volume video and downloads? For high-volume video and file delivery in Europe, pick on cost per TB at your volume and throughput on large objects. At 100 TB a month, published price lists checked August 2026 put BlazingCDN, bunny.net Volume and CDN77 under $1,000. Confirm with a two-week per-country RUM test before committing, because CEE performance varies by provider. ### Do I need a European-owned CDN for GDPR compliance? No, GDPR does not require a European-owned CDN, but it does require a lawful basis for any transfer outside the EEA. Check where logs are stored, who can access them, the sub-processor list and the transfer mechanism, such as SCCs or the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. EU ownership shortens that review without replacing it. ### How much does a CDN in Europe cost at 100 TB a month? A CDN in Europe costs between about $415 and $6,965 for 100 TB a month on published price lists checked August 2026. BlazingCDN is $415 as of November 2026, with one global rate and no request fees. Amazon CloudFront pay as you go is $6,965 for transfer alone. Request fees and regional rates can widen the gap. ### How do I find the fastest CDN in Europe for my own users? Find the fastest CDN in Europe for your users by measuring cache-hit p95 TTFB per country with real user monitoring, not synthetic tests from FLAP data centers. Split traffic by weighted DNS, log the serving-PoP header, and compare IPv4 and IPv6 separately. Two weeks covers weekday and weekend peaks. ### How long does it take to migrate a CDN in Europe? Migrating a CDN in Europe typically takes one to three weeks end to end. Most of that time goes to configuration parity, TLS certificates and gradual DNS weight shifts, not to the provider setup. Start at 5 to 10% of traffic, check cache-hit ratio and origin offload per country, then raise the weight. ## **Run a two-week European bake-off before your next renewal** This week, pull p95 TTFB, cache-hit ratio and origin offload for Poland, Romania and Portugal from your current CDN logs, split by IPv4 and IPv6. Then price your actual monthly volume on every shortlisted vendor, adding request fees and regional rates. If one market sits above this article's thresholds, or the invoice gap exceeds 2x, you have a business case for a weighted DNS test against a second provider. BlazingCDN offers a 14-day testing period on real production traffic at $5 per TB with the monthly minimum waived, enough to run that comparison on your own European users: [**start a European CDN test on production traffic**](https://blazingcdn.com/sign-up-contact-form/).
