How is this different from Akamai's IP Application Accelerator (https://www.akamai.com/us/en/solutions/products/web-performance/ip-application-accelerator.jsp https://www.akamai.com/us/en/solutions/products/web-performa...)? Honestly curious.
I would love to see a consumer videoconferencing service built on top of one of these networks.
- PeytonKoran 11y agoHello, I am the author. The difference is that Akamai is working on optimizing bandwidth to their customer from a pipes size perspective, not a latency perspective. In other words, they want the widest highway possible, maybe not the fastest. Peyton
- surfmike 11y agoInteresting, thanks for that. You guys should really consider making this a platform that anyone could use!
- BillyParadise 11y agoI'd be surprised if they haven't already considered it. Building a national backbone is a large endeavour, and now that it's built, a great way to diversify revenue. Games only stay popular for a finite period of time.
