A low-cost global CDN built around cheap bandwidth versus an image and media platform built around on-the-fly transformations — pick based on whether delivery or transformation is the bottleneck.
Pick Bunny CDN when raw delivery is the job — static assets, video, and large files where bandwidth cost dominates and you don't need a full media pipeline. Pick Cloudinary when on-the-fly resizing, format conversion, AI-driven cropping, and a DAM-style workflow are the point, and you're willing to pay for a managed media platform on top of the CDN layer.
