# Improve performance by compressing files in Azure CDN

File compression is a simple and effective method to improve file transfer speed and increase page-load performance by reducing a file's size before it is sent from the server. File compression can reduce bandwidth costs and provide a more responsive experience for your users.

- Enable compression directly on the CDN POP servers (*compression on the fly*). In this case, the CDN compresses the files and serves them to the end users, even if they were not compressed by the origin server.

When a request for an asset specifies gzip compression and the request results in a cache miss, Azure CDN performs gzip compression of the asset directly on the POP server. Afterward, the compressed file is served from the cache.
