and updates – to their customers on a broad scale,” said Kirby

digital content to operate global businesses. Only CDNs that
deliver customer content with exceptional reliability and
performance worldwide can meet these needs.”

outstanding,” Anne-Marie Gatringer, operations manager, Insinc
Internet Services GmbH.
