Intelligent frontend hosting for SitecoreAI
IDO Edge is a Sitecore ISV Partner - the full suite for SitecoreAI, frontend hosting included, and the same suite in front of Sitecore XP.
Frontend hosting, security, global delivery and native performance in Mainland China, run as one suite.
SitecoreAI manages your content.
Your frontend is a separate decision.
SitecoreAI is headless: content lives inside it, while the frontend that renders it, typically a Next.js head application, needs its own home.
That is a frontend hosting decision made separately from the CMS itself, often landing on a general-purpose platform such as Vercel or Netlify.
Those platforms are built for developer speed: fast deploys, a smooth Git workflow and generous free tiers. What they are not built for is the governance an enterprise SitecoreAI deployment needs.
Sitecore frontend hosting needs to meet enterprise security standards, scale under real production traffic and reach markets like Mainland China natively, not through a workaround.
For teams already running SitecoreAI at scale, that gap becomes their own to close.
Sitecore frontend hosting built for enterprise governance,
not just developer speed.
IDO Edge answers that gap with SitecoreAI frontend hosting delivered as one suite: security, delivery, monitoring and White Glove Enterprise Service, all in the same place.
As a Sitecore ISV Partner, IDO Edge is built to Sitecore's integration standards. Running Sitecore XP? IDO Edge puts the same suite in front of your fullstack XP site - delivery, security, monitoring and dashboards - with nothing to re-platform, and adds frontend hosting when you move to SitecoreAI. Security is actively managed, and support is backed by SLAs. China Frontend Hosting for SitecoreAI is available as an optional addition, giving Chinese visitors native performance through real in-country PoPs - and your Sitecore CDN needs are met through IDO Edge's global network, spanning more than 250 points of presence.
For deployments that need infrastructure of their own, IDO Edge Dedicated is available - reserved, single-tenant resources with region-specific data controls, detailed below.
Why enterprises choose IDO Edge for SitecoreAI

Share the domain and make one DNS change, timed to your change management. We verify reachability, prepare the edge certificate and secure the origin connection before routing switches over. CDN, image optimisation, logging, DDoS mitigation and WAF monitoring go live from the first request.
Your WAF, matured by week four

The option to move to IDO Edge Dedicated for reserved infrastructure and in-country data controls, when your Sitecore deployment needs it.
