Origin Storage Services From Limelight Networks

Limelight Networks Inc. introduced a risk-free trial of its Origin Storage services.

The company is offering unlimited no-cost storage capacity for 60 days with free assistance to migrate content from current storage systems. Additionally, the firm will match a customer’s effective storage pricing at the conclusion of the free trial.

In many CDN environments, origin storage is the weakest link – a critical but underappreciated element in the content delivery workflow. As a result, the quality of content delivery and user experience can suffer due to poorly optimized origin storage.

Origin Storage solves this problem. It’s integrated with the Orchestrate Platform and uses the company’s global private fiber backbone to accelerate automated content replication and delivery. independent performance monitor Cedexis, Inc. has measured Origin Storage as being up to 92% faster than other cloud storage offerings ⁽¹⁾. The company’s own internal testing has seen improvements of up to 200%.

Origin Storage benefits include:

• Workflow automation: Easy-to-use policy-based ‘set-it-and-forget-it’ capabilities for managing and replicating content.

• Cost-free automated replication: Automatic content replication in multiple geographic locations close to where it will be delivered to users at no additional cost.

• Built-in redundancy and HA: Content is automatically accessed and served from the fastest storage location, providing automatic redundancy and HA for all content.

• Multi-CDN capable: Can serve as the primary or backup origin for any delivery service or CDN, regardless of the location and size of the content library.

• Automated ingest: Firm’s Intelligent Ingest automatically uploads content based on audience demand or a manifest to simplify migration from legacy storage systems.

“Limelight has invested millions of dollars and years of development to deliver the best combination of assets that will help differentiate our customer from their competitors,” said Nigel Burmeister, VP marketing, Limelight. “Origin Storage removes the complexities of managing content by automating the ingest and replication of content to provide the fastest delivery with built-in redundancy and HA. We’re offering this risk-free trial so that every organization can experience the benefits of using Origin Storage to simplify operations, deliver the best online experiences to their customers, and meet their business objectives.“

This offer is for a limited time only.
