#The cdn.pizza model
The organization is the ownership boundary. A zone represents the managed domain; its DNS records, POPs, certificates, WAF rules, and metrics remain attached to that organization.
An origin supplies dynamic content, a public file is a stored and replicated object, and a POP brings resolution, proxying, or caching closer to visitors. Pending, active, degraded, and failed are distinct lifecycle states, not blanket availability promises.
#Read a configuration

Find the domain, its DNS mode, and verification state.
