CDN Cached Bytes Estimate Calculator

The CDN Cached Bytes Estimate helps estimate GB in the context of website and cdn. It uses the specific input quantities Monthly asset requests, Average asset kB and Cache hit rate % rather than relying on a generic percentage or a hidden default. Enter measurements with the units displayed next to each field, and compare the calculated result with the worked example below. This estimates bytes served from cache, not billed origin transfer. It runs locally in the browser; no personal account or server calculation is required.

How to use this calculator

  1. Enter Monthly asset requests using the stated units, then confirm the number reflects your own situation.
  2. Enter Average asset kB using the stated units, then confirm the number reflects your own situation.
  3. Enter Cache hit rate % using the stated units, then confirm the number reflects your own situation.
  4. Review the displayed result and the stated limitation before using it in a real plan.

CDN Cached Bytes Estimate equation and assumptions

Monthly asset requests*Average asset kB*Cache hit rate %/100/1000000 → GB

  • The equation combines Monthly asset requests, Average asset kB, Cache hit rate % in the order shown and returns GB.
  • This estimates bytes served from cache, not billed origin transfer.

Worked examples

Worked example: CDN Cached Bytes Estimate

Try these values: Monthly asset requests = 900000, Average asset kB = 90, Cache hit rate % = 88.

Evaluate Monthly asset requests*Average asset kB*Cache hit rate %/100/1000000 with the example values.

The calculated result is approximately 71.28 GB. Change the input values to explore a different scenario.
