Business Wire
Limelight Networks, (Nasdaq:LLNW), a global leader in digital
content delivery, today announced that Magine is using Limelight’s
Content Delivery Network (CDN) to deliver live and on-demand
content to millions of viewers in Europe.
Prior to partnering with Limelight, Magine was working with a
CDN provider, but over time noticed it had limited capacity in
Europe to meet customer demands. To ensure the highest levels of
availability and performance, Magine implemented a multi-CDN
strategy. In addition, they built their own tools to evaluate CDN
performance by region, the quality of streams, costs and
reliability of each CDN provider. Limelight’s CDN was chosen
because of its scalability, reputation, competitive pricing and top
performance in their internal testing.
“The CDN is a vital part of our distribution chain and we expect
a high quality of service,” said Klas Ahlin, Head of Service
Operations at Magine. “Limelight has a solid track record, and we
have been happy with the consistent performance across
regions.”
“OTT viewers expect a high-quality experience every time they
access video on demand and live streamed content,” said Nigel
Burmeister, Vice President, Global Marketing at Limelight Networks.
“By using Limelight as part of their multi-CDN strategy, Magine can
send traffic to the highest performing CDN to ensure the best
possible viewing experiences, and we’re pleased to see Magine’s
testing show Limelight as a consistent top performer.”
