Explain Photon in WordPress
In WordPress, Photon is a feature of the Jetpack plugin that allows you to speed up the loading of your website by loading images from the WordPress.com content delivery network (CDN). A photon is a particle of light, and WordPress is a content management system that uses a database to store and organize information. When you create or edit a post in WordPress, the content is stored in the database as a record. When a user requests a page on your website, WordPress retrieves the appropriate records from the database and assembles them into a web page.
In order to display images on a WordPress website, you must first upload them to the server. Once they are uploaded, you can insert them into posts and pages using the WordPress media library. When a user requests a page that contains an image, WordPress retrieves the image from the server and inserts it into the page. The process of uploading images and inserting them into pages is called the photon. Photon is a great way to speed up your WordPress website. If you have a lot of images, or if your website gets a lot of traffic, then it is recommended that you enable this feature.
