Bunny.net in front of Olympus

Bunny.net is a cost-effective CDN. Useful for small-mid Olympus deployments wanting CDN benefits without enterprise pricing.

Architecture

User → Bunny edge → Caddy on origin → Olympus

Setup

Pull Zone

Bunny dashboard → Pull Zones → add a zone:

• Origin URL: https://your-caddy-host
• Hostname: ciam.example.com (custom hostname)

Bunny issues a free Let's Encrypt cert for your custom hostname.

Edge rules

For auth-sensitive paths, set "Override Cache Time = 0":

URL contains: /oauth2/, /login, /registration, /recovery, /consent, /logout
Action: Override Cache Time → 0

For static assets:

URL contains: /_next/static/
Action: Override Cache Time → 1 year

Real IP

Bunny adds X-Forwarded-For and CF-Connecting-IP (yes, also called CF). Trust in Caddy.

Cost

• $0.01-0.06/GB (region-dependent).
• $1/month per zone minimum.

A typical 1k-MAU Olympus deployment costs <$5/month for Bunny on top.

When to use

• Small or hobby deployments where CloudFront / Fastly cost is too high.
• You want edge caching without complex rules.

Caveats

• Bunny doesn't have a built-in WAF as sophisticated as Cloudflare or AWS.
• Smaller PoP footprint than Cloudflare.

For DDoS-prone deployments, Cloudflare is safer; for cost-optimized, Bunny is competitive.
