BETTER UX FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS IN CHINA
StreamX Digital Experience Mesh (DXM) preprocesses and pushes data and services beyond the Great FireWall, so your user requests do not need to cross it.
THE PROBLEM
Most modern sites aren’t just static HTML. They’re put together from CMS data, product catalogs, search results, and recommendations. That’s fine globally - until you hit China, where performance and compliance are two sides of the same coin.
WHAT HAPPENS?
Global CDNs serving from offshore = high latency and packet loss
WHY?
China requires licensed local hosting and CDNs. Offshore delivery is filtered or throttled by the GFW
WHAT HAPPENS?
APIs, fonts, maps, videos, and scripts fail to load
WHY?
Services from providers like Google, LinkedIn or Meta are blocked entirely under Chinese content laws
WHAT HAPPENS?
Checks done from US/EU look OK while internal users report constant timeouts
WHY?
Foreign cloud regions can't integrate directly with licensed Chinese ISPs or edge networks
WHAT HAPPENS?
Assets like stylesheets or JavaScript templates don’t load
WHY?
JS and stylesheets hosted outside China are treated as content and inspected by the GFW
WHAT HAPPENS?
Search calls origin services abroad, and every request is slow or drops
WHY?
Cross-border data calls are throttled and/or heavily inspected by Great China Firewall
WHAT HAPPENS?
Edge Rendering or CDN rules don’t work from outside the GFW
WHY?
Foreign cloud regions can't integrate directly with licensed Chinese ISPs or edge networks
THE SOLUTION
Because StreamX pushes content changes in real-time into the globally distributed data layer – as opposed to fetching content periodically, as a traditional CDN would do – businesses enjoy the ability to deliver dynamic content across the globe with virtually no syncing delays.
THE SOLUTION
how it works
StreamX bypasses GFW slowdowns by streaming content updates from CMS and PIM and other source systems, processing them instantly, and delivering pre-generated experiences for optimal performance without blocked or slow external resources.
why it matters
By pre-processing content and delivering it efficiently, StreamX minimizes dependency on international services, bypasses GFW-induced slowdowns, and ensures seamless, fast-loading experiences for users in China.
how it works
Instead of hosting your CMS in China, StreamX enables a hybrid approach with local web servers for pre-generated content and tailored services like search, ensuring fast, localized experiences while keeping core infrastructure abroad.
why it matters
StreamX ensures China-ready performance without full migration, reducing latency, boosting speed, and enhancing compliance while maintaining global flexibility for a seamless user experience.
how it works
StreamX pre-generates content from source systems, creating lightweight HTML files, optimizing images, and minimizing resource resolution. All services run with a local store, removing the need for long-distance resource fetching.
why it matters
This approach ensures faster load times, reduced latency, and a smoother user experience in China, leading to better engagement, improved SEO, and higher conversion rates.
USE CASES
StreamX enables you to enrich your website with data from backend systems outside China without compromising speed or performance. By setting up tailored pipelines and workflows, you can selectively send content relevant to your Chinese audience to servers within China, ensuring fast and seamless access. Additionally, StreamX allows you to create a localized version of search services, eliminating the need for cross-border queries and ensuring optimal performance for users in China.
HOW STREAMX WORKS
