Performance & CDN
Deliver fast, reliable experiences with global edge caching, image optimization, and intelligent routing.
What you're up against.
Latency kills conversions
Every 100ms of added latency reduces conversion rates measurably. At scale, slow page loads are a revenue problem — not just a UX complaint.
Origin can't absorb traffic spikes
Flash sales, breaking news, viral content, and IPOs create traffic spikes that overwhelm origin infrastructure at exactly the moment you need it most.
Unoptimised media drags everything down
Images and video are the most common cause of poor Core Web Vitals. Manual optimisation workflows don't scale across thousands of assets updated daily.
From deployment to continuous operation.
Onboard
We map your origin architecture and configure Akamai CDN with caching rules, origin failover, and routing policies tuned to your content types and traffic patterns.
Optimise
Image and video optimisation pipelines are configured — automatic format selection (WebP, AVIF), responsive sizing, and quality tuning per use case.
Extend
EdgeWorkers bring business logic to the edge: A/B testing, personalisation, redirect handling — without round-trips to origin adding latency.
Monitor
Real-time performance analytics, cache hit ratio tracking, and Core Web Vitals monitoring with monthly optimisation recommendations.
What's included.
Global CDN at scale
4,000+ PoPs serving cached content within milliseconds of your users, with automatic failover and BGP Anycast routing built in.
Intelligent routing
Real-time path optimisation that adapts to internet congestion and routing outages — without manual configuration or maintenance.
Image & video optimisation
Automatic format conversion (WebP, AVIF), responsive sizing, and quality optimisation served from the edge — no origin pipeline changes required.
EdgeWorkers
Run JavaScript at the edge for A/B testing, redirects, request manipulation, and personalisation — milliseconds from your users, not round-trips to origin.
Real User Monitoring
Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) measured from actual user sessions across geographies and device types — not synthetic lab tests.
Origin shielding
Tiered caching reduces origin requests by 40-70%, protecting against traffic spikes and cutting infrastructure costs on your busiest days.
For most sites we onboard, 40–70% of requests never reach origin at all. Fewer servers, lower costs, and an origin that's never overwhelmed — even on your busiest days.
