- dallascrzr 5y agoThat figure is misleading. Every one of Cloudflare’s pops run every service they offer. A large number of Akamai’s are running small CDN only deployments. They also have 20 worldwide ddos scrubbing centers. Cloudflare’s 250 pops all do it. It’s not really apples to apples in terms of scale in the context of footprint
- anaganisk 5y agoI mean Akamai was in the business since 1998 and has been a leading player in CDNs.
- porbelm 5y agoYeah I seem to remember they became well-known when they were the CDN for the Apple Trailers site around the (Sorenson encoded) Episode 1 Trailer times?
