Overall Satisfaction with Akamai

We have several documents that we need to share with multiple people via SMS or E-Mail. The easy way to do it is to store the document in a CDN repository and sent the link to the document via SMS or Email and add the link into the message. Having the document in Akamai enables us to modify the message and enables us to send billions of messages in a small period of time.

Pros

  • It's a really fast CDN
  • The protection and security is fantastic
  • Also the API is reliable

Cons

  • The registration process was complicated several years ago (Don't know is this remain)
  • More endpoints in Australia
  • We got 2 outages in 5 years. But those was more that a hour
  • Share documents
  • Speed downloads
  • Close regions to the customer
  • We save some money having all those documents outside of our datacenter
  • The bill in AWS was reduced in 35% just using Akamai
