Leading Content Delivery Network (CDN) Selected Based on its High
Performance During In-Depth User Testing
TEMPE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Limelight
Networks, Inc.(Nasdaq:LLNW), a global leader in digital
content delivery, today announced that Dailymotion, one of the largest
video platforms in the world, is using the Limelight Orchestrate
(“Orchestrate”) Delivery service to deliver broadcast quality videos in
Asia to all Internet connected devices.
“We believe video is the best way to capture and share life’s incredible
variety. As our global business expands into more markets it’s important
for us to offer the best video experience to our viewers around the
globe,” said Guillaume Clement, vice president of engineering at
Dailymotion. “When put to the test, Limelight was able to provide
Dailymotion with the best streaming experience in Asia Pacific (APAC) to
support our rapid expansion in the region.”
Today, people watch, share and upload their videos on Dailymotion across
every continent. More than half of their video views come from mobile
devices. With rapid global growth, Dailymotion needed an extra delivery
boost, in addition to its regular bandwidth capacity, for the most
popular videos in its growing APAC market. Before making a decision,
Dailymotion conducted real-time user testing to evaluate several CDNs.
“As Dailymotion grows their business globally, they have one chance to
make a first impression and they need confidence that their videos will
be delivered flawlessly,” said Jon Smith, group vice president and
managing director, EMEA at Limelight. “Even in the face of unexpected
traffic spikes, Orchestrate delivers a broadcast quality experience to
viewers around the globe, on the device of their choosing.”
