How it works

Armbian mirror system

  1. Request — a user starts a download (image, package, …) from a standard URL such as https://dl.armbian.com.
  2. Routing — the redirector picks the best mirror based on the user’s location, each mirror’s status and load, and whether it holds the requested file.
  3. Redirect — the user is sent straight to the chosen mirror.
  4. Download — the file is served directly from that mirror, keeping downloads fast and taking load off the core infrastructure.

The result is load balancing across many servers, faster downloads from a nearby mirror, and redundancy — if a mirror is unavailable, the redirector automatically routes around it.
