About

wsrv.nl is an open-source image cache and resize service that allows you to manipulate images on-the-fly while leveraging a global cache. This ensures that your images load quickly and efficiently, no matter where your users are located. The service is built using best-in-class technologies such as nginx and libvips, and is backed by Cloudflare's CDN, which spans over 300 global datacenters. On average, wsrv.nl resizes 6 million images per hour, generating around 400TB of outbound traffic per month. This level of usage attests to its reliability and efficiency, making it a widely used solution for image manipulation and caching needs. Released under the BSD 3-Clause License, wsrv.nl is a robust, community-supported project that continues to evolve and improve.
