Upload a directory and it is served worldwide, with a certificate, caching and the same rules Shield applies to everything else.

A Pages site is served only on a hostname you own. Orbit does not provide a subdomain to publish on. The reason is that user content under our own name would put the console, the identity provider, the status page and every device using our public resolver behind a single browser blocklist entry. Content published on a customer domain affects the reputation of that domain.

Each upload is a deploy, and a deploy never changes once it is finished. Going back to an earlier one is instant: nothing is copied and nothing is rebuilt, because the deploy is part of where its files are stored — only a pointer moves. The edge is told to drop its cache at the same moment, so a rollback is visible immediately rather than when the last cached file happens to expire.

Ordinary static-site behaviour, stated rather than guessed at: /docs is docs.html when that exists and docs/index.html otherwise; a directory asked for without its trailing slash is redirected rather than served, so relative links resolve where their author meant; a missing page gets your 404.html with a 404 status, not a 200. A _redirects file gives exact and wildcard rules, and _headers lets you set your own response headers — though not ones that would rewrite what the edge decided.
