BYO CDN Setup

Customers may use their own CDN to deliver AEM content under their own domain (aka BYO Production CDN). While customers are generally free to configure their CDN according to their own needs there are some settings mandated/recommended by Adobe Experience Manager:

Origin url
https://main--<yoursite>--<yourorg>.aem.live
Headers sent to origin
- X-Forwarded-Host: <production domain>
- X-Push-Invalidation: enabled
  (see Configuring Push Invalidation)
Origin cache control
I.e. Cache TTL on the production CDN is controlled via origin cache control response headers. This should be enabled (if available).
Compression (gzip)
Should be enabled
Query parameters
- Must be forwarded to origin
- Must be included in cache key
Age response header
The Age response header must be either suppressed or overridden (Age: 0)
