HTTP Adaptive Streaming for Media and Entertainment

When it comes to consuming online media and entertainment, site visitors demand an engaging and immersive experience. That means your site must deliver high-quality content and applications using advanced techniques like adaptive streaming in a variety of formats, while supporting a large volume of globally dispersed visitors.

Perhaps you display ads on your own site. Or maybe you serve them across a network of sites on behalf of other companies. Either way, you're likely tapping into behind-the-scenes software and site visitor behavior to dynamically serve the most relevant offers. In order to capture the attention of time-constrained site visitors, your ads need to display instantly.

"A Web page loading half a second slower than another will experience a 20 per cent drop in traffic."

“Being fast and reliable is critical, and CDNetworks helps us predictably deliver more than 30 million page views per month, increasing our inventory for advertising revenue.”
Michael Greer, Vice President of Product, The Onion

In addition to the 2008 Olympics in China, we accelerated content to over a million viewers of the 2008 World Cyber Games, and managed 220,000 simultaneous connections for the 2006 World Baseball Classic. And we enabled access to the "Yes We Can" Barrack Obama video on the Dipdive website during the 2008 United States Presidential campaign.

Once your content is delivered, you can easily access traffic statistics in support of maximizing ad revenue. Moreover, we provide reporting at all traffic levels - not just peak - so that SMBs can enjoy the same benefits as the media giants.
