Hello @Azure-enthusiast ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & hope you are doing well.

I understand that you would like to know if the pre-load assets feature of Azure CDN preloads assets to all the POP servers/edge nodes across the globe.

Yes, with Azure CDN from Verizon (Edgio), pre-load does hit all edge nodes and propagation time is around a couple of minutes.

You can find more information on a similar thread below:

To Pre-load assets on an Azure CDN endpoint, please refer: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cdn/cdn-preload-endpoint

Kindly let us know if the above helps or you need further assistance on this issue.
