Rewrite Origin URLs

The Rewrite Origin URLs feature enables precise control over how dynamic requests are routed to the origin server. By defining flexible rewrite rules, you can seamlessly map public-facing URLs to complex backend structures, ensuring efficient content delivery for frequently changing or user-specific resources.

Key Features

• Match Mode Options: Define dynamic matching criteria to identify URL patterns that require rewriting. Supports regular expressions and parameter-based matching for complex routing scenarios.

• Dynamic Origin URI: Specify dynamic or user-specific URIs that trigger the rewrite rules, ensuring accurate routing for content generated in real time.

• Target URI: Set the destination URIs to which requests will be rewritten. Supports placeholders and query string management for personalized and API-driven content.

• Priority-Based Execution: Assign priorities to rewrite rules to ensure correct execution order, especially when multiple rules overlap.

Key Benefits

• Optimized Content Routing: Ensures real-time requests are directed to the correct origin endpoints, even when public-facing URLs differ from backend paths.

• Improved Backend Integration: Allows seamless integration with origin servers that use dynamic or customized URL structures.

• Enhanced Flexibility: Supports complex URL rewrites using regular expressions and query string management for APIs, dynamic resources, or personalized content.

• Reduced Latency: Enables direct mapping of public URLs to backend resources, reducing processing time and improving overall response speed.

• Scalable Personalization: Dynamically adapts routing for user-specific requests, ensuring accurate delivery of tailored content without exposing backend complexities.
