What is a CDN at all?

CDN stands for Content Delivery Network and refers to an online network, which Blizzard's DEV's data can work or work from different locations from various builds of your games. Not only since the grassing Corona pandemic and the associated HomeOffice regulations such a CDN is useful to work remote, for example, WOW. Of course, the data in the CDN is encrypted, Ottonormal gamers can not do anything. But from the names of the endpoints, that is, the storage locations, a few conclusions can be pulled.

And Just on February 15, 2022, it has noticed those who observe the Blizzard CDN that such a new storage end of Blizzard employees was created, called WOWDEV3.

What could be on WOWDEV3?

One of the Blizzard observers, who noticed the "opening" of WOWDEV3, is Martin Benjamin and he brings a bit context. "Blizzard has delivered a new (probably encrypted) WOW product / endpoint named WoWDEV3. There is no build on it yet. For comparison: WOWDEV is used economical for Mainline (eg 9.x) while WOWDEV2 for TBC Classic was used. [WOWDEV3] could be used for 3.4 (WotLK Classic), 10.0 or both. "

Of course, the alternative would be a new WoW extension.
