AVIF Optimization
Configure AVIF image delivery to reduce JPG file sizes and improve performance by dynamically serving AVIF images to supported browsers.
AVIF enables Medianova CDN to automatically deliver JPG images in the AVIF format to supported browsers. AVIF provides significantly higher compression efficiency than traditional image formats, reducing file sizes while maintaining visual quality.
Because conversion occurs dynamically at the CDN edge, no changes are required on the origin server.
