Stack Exchange dont own their CDN. If you really start couting external servers, you would be adding DNS, possible client side proxy servers, client side network infrastructure, etc... these are things that OTHER people do, not SO.
- duderific 12y agoI would say though, CDN doesn't fall in the same category as DNS. Serving static assets off other networks does take a huge load off the SE infrastructure and should probably be mentioned in the article.
