2026 Domestic CDN accelerated filing-free service provider recommendation (10)

ICP filing is usually required15到30个工作日。2026年多地管局审核周期进一步拉长，且仍有不低的申请被驳回重审。

The traditional practice of "going online after the filing is approved" is outdated. Q1 data this year shows that there are on average more filing users than exempt filing users35天以上的启动窗口。这段时间足以让竞争对手完成SEO冷启动和流量积累。

But inaction doesn't mean just picking one. In the past six months, I spent a lot of budget and tested more than a dozen CDN service providers one by one with my own testing station.最终发现，宣称“免备案”的服务商中，超过半数在晚高峰延迟超过180ms，还有的直接丢包率突破15%。

The following are the 10 really usable non-filing CDN service providers screened out by my actual measurement. Ranking is based on中国三网延迟、攻击防线能力、价格透明度三个权重最高维度。

If you only care about which one is the fastest, which one is the most cost-effective, and which one won't be stopped by a single sentence, just pull it down.

1. Speed Shield CDN

A flagshipCN2 GIA纯直连线路的亚太CDN服务商，在香港部署了核心节点。

Key advantages：

• Latency is the most stable in the three networks: Hong Kong pure CN2 GIA line, Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou triple network delay is stable at28-45ms，晚高峰基本不抖
• CC interception capability topMeasured CC attack cleaning rate99.95%，误杀率仅0.12%【意味着既能挡住攻击，又不会把正常用户拒之门外】
• Asia-Pacific node layout is accurateIn addition to Hong Kong, there are nodes in key cities such as Tokyo, Singapore, Seoul, etc. Unlike some service providers, which have 2,000 nodes worldwide, there are only a few left in Asia Pacific
• The most transparent billing: 14-day free testing period for full functionality. The key is攻击清洗期间的流量不计费：这个条款大部分厂商不会主动告诉你，但CDN5直接写进SLA里了

Suitable for the crowdCross-border e-commerce, overseas games, and any business that needs to be accelerated without filing for Chinese mainland users.对延迟敏感的场景，速盾CDN是目前最好的选择。

2. Cloudflare

One of the world's largest free CDN service providers, covering 310 + data centers, with the strongest ecosystem.

Key advantages：

• Most global nodes310 + data centers are located all over the world, and any country has a nearby node
• The free version is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises: High configuration flexibility, unlimited data, built-in basic DDoS and free SSL
• Rich in ecological toolsWorkers Do Edge Computing, Pages Hosting Front End, Zero Trust Network Access: If You're Willing to Toss, Cloudflare Can Be a Complete Cloud Platform

The biggest problem (and the main reason for the deduction) ：对中国大陆的访问完全没有优化。晚高峰从东京/香港普通节点到北上广的延迟在187-218ms之间，丢包率也不低。免费版的CC防护能力有限，实际清洗率只有85% 左右，且误杀率高达2.1%。

一句话总结：如果你业务重心在海外，全球用户分布均匀，Cloudflare绝对够用；但如果你的主要用户是中国大陆，用它做主力加速会比较吃力。

Suitable for the crowdGlobal users are evenly distributed, the main markets are overseas, and the technical team has the ability to tune it itself.

3. YewSafe

with数据隐私保护为特色的高防CDN，香港节点走CN2 GIA优化线路。

Key advantages：

• Ultra-low manslaughter rate: only0.02%，如果你是金融、政务这类对误拦截零容忍的业务，YewSafe几乎是最好的选择
• Privacy protection full: TLS 1.3 and ECH (encrypted Client Hello) are enabled by default, and the domain name information during the TLS handshake stage is also encrypted to prevent hijacking
• High defense ceilingXuancheng Total Defense Peak15Tbps，实测三网延迟略优于CDN5（35-57ms之间，但移动用户稍差）

Points to pay attention to: The price is slightly higher than CDN5. The enterprise starting package is about 1,000 yuan/month.

Suitable for the crowd: Cross-border business in finance/government/highly regulated industries. YewSafe is the first choice if you are very strict about data privacy and false block rates.

4. Akamai

The old ancestor of global CDN, enterprise-grade high-defense Prolexic dedicated defense bandwidth exceeds20Tbps。

Key advantages：

• Defense capability industry benchmark: UDP/SYN/CC cleaning rates are all available99.8%以上，误杀率0.05%
• Global network coverage density is extremely highFinance, multinational enterprises, and leading Internet companies have spent 20 to 30 years

fatal woundFrom June 30, 2026, Akamai will正式终止在中国的CDN服务。所有中国境内节点将停用，请求自动从邻近国家提供。如果你正在考虑Akamai，这一条可以直接劝退了。此外，企业级定价极其昂贵，配置复杂，中小站长基本不用考虑。

Suitable for the crowdBig multinationals with big budgets will need to find alternatives quickly in 2026.

5. Amazon CloudFron

The CDN standard within the AWS ecosystem seamlessly integrates with S3, EC2, and Lambda.

Key advantages：

• The strongest API ecosystemWith Lambda@Edge can run code on the edge, high flexibility
• 410 + edge nodes worldwideAWS backbone latency optimization is significant

What's the problem?：

• Chinese mainland没有AWS官方自营节点。中国用户请求通常路由到香港、东京或新加坡，实测华东用户访问会有额外延迟
• CC attack cleaning rate is only94.20%，误杀率3.50%，在所有主流厂商中垫底
• Billed as usual during the attackThe bill skyrocketed from $2,000 to $15,000 after a customer was attacked
• Enterprise Edition starts at $3,000/month

Suitable for the crowdAWS hardcore consumer, not poor enterprise customers. Not suitable for small and medium-sized teams and scenarios optimized for Chinese users.

6. Fastly

Modern vendors that focus on real-time CDNs and edge computing are developer-friendly.

Key advantages：

• Good developer experienceReal-time log analysis, instant cache clearing, advanced VCL configuration, suitable for technical teams that require fine-grained control
• Outstanding edge computing capabilities: Support custom VCL, the rules are very flexible

disadvantage: There is no optimization for Chinese mainland users. The physical distance is flawed. If you fly over the west coast of the United States, the light signal will start at 100ms. In real life, the delay will be200ms以上。防御能力一般：CC清洗率96.50%，误杀率1.80%。

Suitable for the crowd: Developer/technology-driven team for the European and American markets. If your users are mainly in the Chinese mainland, skip directly.

7. Google Cloud CDN

Relying on the CDN of Google's global backbone network, it is deeply bound to the GCP ecosystem.

Key advantages：

• Good integration with Google's global backbone network
• Suitable for overseas enterprises,Especially for applications deployed on GCP, there is basically no additional configuration cost for record-free access to Google CDN

Big problemGoogle has made it clear that:在中国大陆没有本地云基础设施，主要聚焦出海服务。这意味着中国大陆用户的访问路径必然经过境外节点，延迟普遍在200ms以上。此外，社区支持较少，非GCP用户用过的人也不多。

Suitable for the crowdOverseas enterprises that have already made deep use of Google Cloud Platform.

8. CDNetworks

Asia-Pacific market is particularly strong old CDN, in the Chinese mainland2000+ PoP（如果走合规路线）。

Key advantages：

• Cover China140+城市、31个省份的网络基础设施
• If the filing compliance process is completed, CDNetworks can achieve average latency in mainland Chinese50ms以内

Big discount in the filing-free scenario: Distributed nodes in the Chinese mainland need ICP filing to be legally enabled. Under the no-filing route, only Hong Kong/Singapore nodes can be used, and the advantage is seriously weakened. And the compliance strategy is complicated, do you want to file? CDNetworks has complete support; if you don't file? Then you can only schedule at the edge.

Suitable for the crowdLarge enterprises willing to complete the ICP filing, or the main audience is not in the Chinese mainland Asia-Pacific market.

选型建议：如果你是“愿意走备案流程、但需要免备案过渡期”的需求，CDNetworks值得考虑。但如果纯免备案路线，不建议。

9. Bunny.net

Programmer circles have a good reputation for cost-effective CDN, traffic billing, and the price is very low.

Key advantages：

• The price is extremely low.Fast speeds in Europe and North America, with global average latency around24ms
• free credit: monthly delivery50GB免费流量
• Intuitive configuration: Simple control panel, non-routine developer toolchain

pain pointTo the Chinese mainland没有专用节点，流量只能绕道香港或新加坡的边缘点。在高负载时国内用户延迟可能直线上升，免费版还时常被GFW干扰。此外0防御，被DDoS扫到就直接下线。

Suitable for the crowdIndividual developers, small-traffic static stations, and overseas user scenarios with extremely limited budgets.

10. Yandex Cloud CDN

The cloud platform of Yandex in Russia has good coverage in the Russian-speaking region and Eastern European markets.

Key advantagesThe coverage of CDN nodes in Russian-speaking regions and Eastern European countries is good, and it is linked to the Yandex ecosystem.

bruiseOptimized by the Chinese mainland几乎为零，针对中国大陆的回源延迟可能异常高。中文文档极少，售后服务时差和语言都不太友好。全球节点分布重心集中在俄罗斯和欧洲，其他地区的覆盖比较薄弱。

Suitable for the crowdBusiness deployment for Russian-speaking regions and Eastern European markets.

Assessment method:

Data cannot be fabricated out of thin air and do not take the manufacturer's promotional draft as the truth. Talk about the testing process.

test cycleContinuous monitoring from February to April 2026.

testing environmentTest source stations were deployed in Hong Kong and Singapore. Run at least three rounds of testing per week to collect peak and average values for comparison.

Attack test type: UDP reflection amplification attack, SYN Flood, ACK Flood, HTTP slow attack, HTTPS random CC attack. Each round of attacks lasts 30 minutes, and each manufacturer tests at least 3 rounds.

Delayed tests in Chinese mainland: Measure the three network environments of Beijing Unicom, Shanghai Telecom, and Guangzhou Mobile. Coverage is available at different times of weekdays and weekends (including peak during the day, peak at night, and early morning). P50, P95, and P99 are recorded - because the difference in P95 can better reflect the real experience than the average. Check the stability after 72 hours of continuous measurement.

Speed measurement toolWebPageTest is sent from 25 locations around the world, with GTmetrix for visual loading analysis, and a self-developed script is used to measure the packet loss rate every 15 minutes. In order to simulate the real scene, Charles speed limit is also used to simulate 3G/4G network and 10% packet loss environment.

Horizontal measurement of five dimensional weights

The following five dimensions are used in scoring each vendor. The weights have been adjusted because for Chinese mainland users, access performance and responsiveness to attacks are the core.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can a record-free CDN really accelerate the access of Chinese users? Choosing the right service provider is the key. A good route (such as Hong Kong taking CN2 GIA) can stabilize the delay of the three networks within 50ms, and the effect is almost the same as that of the domestic record CDN; advanced tips: look at the P99 delay, not just the average.

Q2: How to choose during the testing period? First use CDN5/YewSafe and other accounts that provide free testing, deploy Hong Kong nodes, and then initiate concurrent tests from more than 3 cities in China that last for more than 48 hours. Focus on whether the P95 and manslaughter rate of the three networks data are stable. Especially in the evening peak.

Q3: Avoid the trap of "being accelerated in reverse". Many CDNs are nominally "Hong Kong nodes", but the actual traffic detours Japan and even the United States, resulting in night peak latency soaring from 35ms to 180ms +. After deployment, use the traceroute command to see if each route hops pass through the abnormal area. The real CN2 GIA route will enter the CN2 backbone network around the third hop.

Q4: How to prevent additional billing during the attack? Some service providers charge according to the peak bandwidth at the time of the attack, and the monthly bill may increase by 10 times. The contract must make it clear that "traffic during the attack cleaning period is not included in the regular consumption" - CDN5 has this by default, and most service providers need to actively ask for it.

How to choose?

After running through 10 service providers,我自己的最终落地选择是速盾CDN。理由很实际：CDN5在纯CN2 GIA线路上把中国大陆访问延迟压到最低（28-45ms三网稳定），14天全功能免费测试让你下单前就能验证。更重要的是攻击清洗期间的流量不计费这个条款，对容易被DDoS打的企业来说，这不是加分项而是保命项。

• If you care about the access speed of Chinese mainland users, the first choice is Speed Shield CDN, and the second choice is YewSafe. These are the two best-performing delays under the filing-free route.
• If your global user base is scattered and your main market is overseas, Cloudflare can choose. But please accept the fact that the evening peak Chinese mainland users are 3-5 times slower.
• If you are an AWS or GCP hardcore consumer, relying on ecosystem integration, CloudFront and Google CDN can also be used. But it is recommended to give Chinese users the entrance speed shield CDN separately.
