Published2017.05.15 13:28Experiential marketing promotion in progress
Limelight Networks announced the 'Limelight Orchestrate Platform,' a next-generation CDN platform that provides new capabilities to address the challenges of increasing global online traffic and content delivery worldwide.
Robert A. Lento, Chairman of Limelight Networks, stated at a press conference during his first visit to Korea, “By utilizing Limelight Networks’ CDN services, you can use space and power more smartly. In addition, as a result of continuously adding locations, Limelight currently has about 80 physical sites worldwide.”
Regarding the future of the CDN market, Chairman Robert A. Lento stated, “The CDN market continues to grow, but it will take time for it to become mainstream. OTT (Over The Top) was expected to grow explosively in early 2015, but it is actually seeing results this year, 2017. Similarly, VR is expected to gain traction this year, but it will take a few more years to achieve meaningful results.” "More devices need to be supported, and it will take time for people to learn how to use it comfortably and fully recognize the business benefits," they predicted.
The Limelight Orchestrate Platform can provide delivery performance under complex, ever-changing network conditions without specific client code by optimizing purpose-built Advanced Content Delivery Services.
"With today's announcement, we will enhance our customers' business models across various aspects. From content acquisition and management to content delivery, advanced self-service capabilities, and incremental support for new protocols, we will do our utmost to ensure our customers deliver an experience superior to our competitors. Content delivery is a critical element of user experience, and we are confident that our customers will be able to realize maximum value," said Nigel Burmeister, Executive Vice President of Marketing at Limelight Networks.
Meanwhile, Limelight is running an 'EXPERIENCE FIRST' promotion that allows new customers to use Limelight's CDN service for 90 days for the same amount they would pay to existing third-party CDN providers, with a full refund guarantee if the rebuffer rate does not drop by at least 10%.

SK텔레콤이 3월 21일 서울 광화문 일대에서 열린 대형 K-팝 공연에 AI 기반 네트워크 운영 시스템을 처음 적용해 통신 품질을 관리했다고 밝혔다. 공연 전후 3시간 동안 모바일 데이터 사용량은 12.15TB로 직전 주말 같은 시간대보다 약 2배 늘었다.
