JFrog claims that no other vendor offers these capabilities in this way. The company says PDN helps teams update software across a large number of highly distributed and often different topologies and device types simultaneously.

For example, It is possible for DevOps teams to build their own topologies for accelerating software updates across distribution groups, by using PDN for groups of infrastructure or devices in Europe and in the U.S. Said Landman, “Every PDN node is like a lightweight remote cache, and we arrange nodes in groups, in order to break beyond the single machine network capacity.”

Eliminating infrastructure bottlenecks at the edge that limit frequent and reliable code distribution for updates therefore directly contributes to the productivity of the development team,” Volk said.

Provided that JFrog’s PDN works like it is purported to and can meet the security concerns DevOps teams may have for software updates, it could help DevOps teams to focus more of their resources on developing and perfecting new products and features, Volk said.
