A 'JAM stack' is a website built from three major components: Javascript, which runs in your browser; APIs, which are abstracted server-side processes; and templated Markup that is built at deploy time. The key advantage is this: "When your deployment amounts to a stack of files that can be served anywhere, scaling is a matter of serving those files in more places. CDNs (Content Distribution Networks) are perfect for this, and often include scaling in all of their plans." Here are some examples. A JAM stack is typically deployed using a static site generator which retrieves the files it needs from repositories like GitHub.
