Get Current Total Connections

Indicates the total new connections per second. For the purposes of this endpoint, a connection is initiated when a user agent (e.g., web browser) requests content through the CDN. After which, the user agent determines whether future requests within that session will reuse that connection or whether new connections will be established.

How is this statistic calculated?

This statistic is calculated using the following two steps:

  1. The average number of new connections per second on each edge server is calculated.
  2. This data is collected from all edge servers and then summed.
