Unique combination of origin storage and best-of-breed ingest boost
CDN performance and reduce total cost of ownership
TEMPE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Limelight Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: LLNW),
a global leader in digital content delivery, today introduced a
risk-free trial of its high-performance Origin Storage services.
Limelight is offering unlimited no-cost storage capacity for 60 days
with free assistance to migrate content from current storage systems.
Additionally, Limelight will match a customer’s effective storage
pricing at the conclusion of the free trial.
In many content delivery network (CDN) environments, origin storage is
the weakest link – a critical but underappreciated element in the
content delivery workflow. As a result, the quality of content delivery
and user experience can suffer greatly due to poorly optimized origin
storage.
Limelight’s Origin Storage solves this problem. It’s tightly integrated
with the Limelight Orchestrate Platform and uses Limelight’s global
private fiber backbone to accelerate automated content replication and
delivery. Independent performance monitor Cedexis has measured Limelight
Origin Storage as being up to 92 percent faster than other cloud storage
offerings1. Limelight’s own internal testing has seen
improvements of up to 200 percent.
Limelight’s Origin Storage benefits also include:
- Workflow Automation: Easy-to-use policy-based
“set-it-and-forget-it” capabilities for managing and replicating
content.
- Cost-Free Automated Replication: Automatic content replication
in multiple geographic locations close to where it will be delivered
to users at no additional cost.
- Built-In Redundancy and High-Availability: Content is
automatically accessed and served from the fastest storage location,
providing automatic redundancy and high availability for all content.
- Multi-CDN Capable: Can serve as the primary or backup origin
for any delivery service or CDN, regardless of the location and size
of the content library.
- Automated Ingest: Limelight Intelligent Ingest automatically
uploads content based on audience demand or a manifest to simplify
migration from legacy storage systems.
“Limelight has invested millions of dollars and years of development to
deliver the best combination of assets that will help differentiate our
customer from their competitors,” said Nigel Burmeister, Vice President
of Marketing at Limelight. “Origin Storage removes the complexities of
managing content by automating the ingest and replication of content to
provide the fastest delivery with built-in redundancy and high
availability. We’re offering this risk-free trial so that every
organization can experience the benefits of using Origin Storage to
simplify operations, deliver the best online experiences to their
customers, and meet their business objectives.”
This offer is for a limited time only. For more information or to sign
