As physical media has given way to Web-based downloads of software purchases and updates, companies have faced the challenge of delivering software downloads quickly and reliably to an increasingly sophisticated user base. Electronic Software Delivery is Akamai's next generation software downloads solution that addresses the quality of experience, scale, workflow and analytics requirements of large software vendors for electronic software delivery. The solution provides a predictable, reliable platform to deliver both small and large software downloads effectively to customers – providing the visibility to monitor the entire download process through server and client side reporting."Not only has Akamai helped us save lots of money, but it helps us eliminate planning and constant upgrades to support our 30% annual growth in download traffic.
