Hi,
Honestly I'm not sure what info they are storing now-a-days. I know a
lot of yahoo stuff is there and microsoft updates, etc. but I'm not sure
what else.

Thanks Travis.
I was hoping that Akamai would make somethings go faster being at my
pop rather than across the net.
Glad Windows updates are there. Any idea what else is there that is a
possible bandwidth saver or performance enhancer.
We used to have Akamai Servers and a caching server back in the T-1
Dial up days, but when we went to managed modems and fiber for our
connectivity, we cancelled the Akamai servers and shut down the cache.
Now with video's being so popular, I'm looking at Akamai again. I just
don't know what content is stored on their servers. Would be nice if
cnn, fox, nbc, abc, etc were all working with Akamai.
Wuld also be nice if there was other companies like Akamai to check out.

We've had it for almost 5 years now, and they actually approached
us... so it was a simple form and they shipped us all the equipment
(which does take about 4u of rack space and power... it's 3 servers
and a switch).
I also know that our servers handle requests for people that are
"close" to us, so they may only set up so many people in an area, I'm
not sure.

We love Akamai... especially during big Windows Update periods. :)
We serve 12 school districts and they all seem to do their updates
on PC's and servers during the same times (during school breaks)
and the Akamai servers save us a ton of bandwidth and the customers
get GREAT speeds doing the updates.
What did you have to go through to get a set for your network?
