Best When

You need cost-effective global CDN and edge storage with simple REST API management — Bunny's pricing is significantly cheaper than Cloudflare or AWS CloudFront.

Avoid When

You need edge compute, programmable request handling, or enterprise-grade SLAs — Cloudflare or Fastly are better choices.

Use Cases

  • Agents managing CDN cache purging after content updates to ensure users see fresh content immediately
  • Storage management — agents uploading, organizing, and deleting files in Bunny Storage via REST API
  • Video delivery — agents uploading and managing video content in Bunny Stream for agent-generated video outputs
  • Image optimization — agents serving user uploads through Bunny's image processing API for automatic resizing and format conversion
  • Edge caching configuration — agents creating and configuring pull zones for global asset distribution

Not For

  • Teams requiring enterprise SLAs with dedicated support — Bunny is SMB/developer focused
  • Complex serverless edge compute — use Cloudflare Workers for programmable edge logic
  • Very high-volume video transcoding — use specialized video platforms for production video pipelines

Known Gotchas

  • Storage API uses storage.bunnycdn.com base URL, not api.bunny.net — easy to confuse the two endpoints
  • Storage zone passwords are different from account API key — wrong credential gives 401 on storage operations
  • Cache purge is eventually consistent globally — purge call returns success but edge nodes may serve cached content for seconds after
  • Pull zone and storage zone are separate concepts — agents must create both and link them for CDN-backed storage
  • Video Library API is a separate product (Bunny Stream) with different pricing and auth from core storage
