Leading content delivery network (CDN) vendor
announces most comprehensive new release in company history, with
significant network and software enhancements in security, storage,
mobile device support, purge, self-service and more
Limelight Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq:LLNW) (“Limelight”), a global
leader in digital content delivery, today announced the release of
Limelight Orchestrate V3.0, a comprehensive platform, purpose-built
for the delivery of digital content with exceptional Quality of
Experience (QoE). Over two years in development, this next
generation of Limelight’s award-winning Orchestrate™
("Orchestrate") Platform marks the most comprehensive set of
enhancements to infrastructure, software, and services in the
company’s history, offering improvements to virtually all aspects
of Limelight’s customer experience, and expanding the company’s
offerings to include a new set of services focused on security.
The enhanced capabilities of the Orchestrate V3.0 platform
enable organizations to better deliver rich digital content
rapidly, reliably, securely, and with high QoE to global audiences
anywhere, on any device.
“An exponential increase in the delivery of digital content is
straining the capabilities of the internet, and today’s consumers
are becoming increasingly impatient with poor quality of experience
in accessing this rich content,” stated Limelight CEO, Robert
Lento. “Content owners are struggling with the challenge of
providing high quality digital experiences in the face of
Distributed Denial of Service attacks, network logjams, mobile
device proliferation, and the increasing size of both content files
and content libraries. Working with customers and partners, today
we introduce market leading enhancements that simplify management,
improve performance, and increase efficiency across Limelight’s
solution offerings.”
As businesses increasingly engage with customers online, content
continues to become richer and needs to be delivered to more
devices, in more locations, across the globe. The Orchestrate V3.0
platform supports faster content delivery and the need to deliver
content across all devices and geographies, while protecting
publishers from Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks and
ensuring they deliver an excellent experience for their
customers.
Viewster AG, a leading global free online video service, knows
the importance of consistent and high performance delivery of their
digital content. Viewster relies on the Orchestrate platform, using
the Content Delivery, Storage, Video and Performance services, to
reach customers globally, reliably, and with a high QoE.
“Limelight gives us the geographic reach we need, the
performance our customers demand, and provides high availability of
content to our customers” said Pietro Capozzi, vice president,
Viewster AG. “The bottom line is that Limelight allows us to
provide an excellent digital experience for our customers,”
continued Capozzi.
In the report entitled, ‘Drive Unified Digital Customer
Experiences With Better Technology Strategies’, Forrester Research,
Inc., July 2014, Forrester Research Vice President Stephen Powers
and Analyst Mark Grannan make the case that “Digital Customer
Experiences Are Pervasive -- And Vital: Good customer experience
makes your firm stand out. Increasingly, customers experience your
firm's products and services via digital touchpoints. The digital
experiences your customers have via their mobile phones, rich web
applications, and conversations aided by social media are now vital
to your firm's growth and profitability.”
Today’s announcement of Orchestrate 3.0 includes, among others,
these six discreet and distinct capabilities.
1. DDoS Attack Interceptor: Detects and mitigates network and
application layer DDoS attacks. Protects customers against
downtime, loss of business and brand reputation impact of attacks.

2. SmartPurge: Accurately purges unwanted content from the CDN
world-wide with unmatched speed and consistency. Customers can now
confidently remove content quickly and reliably with minimum
effort.
3. Self Service Configuration Management: Enables customers to
quickly respond to business decisions in real-time. Easy to use
tools allow customers to make configuration changes that will then
take effect in less than 30 minutes.
4. Multi-device media delivery (MMD) Live: Extends MMD’s
industry leading on-the-fly transcoding and transmuxing
capabilities to live streaming. Customers can now publish a live
stream to multiple devices using adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming,
reducing buffering and enhancing the user experience. MMD
simplifies live video streaming to all desktop, mobile, tablet,
smart TV, Internet connected set-top-box, and gaming console
platforms.
5. Storage: Enhancements to policy defined storage resulting in
smart workflows, allowing just-in-time transformation of data.
Provides flexible user replication policy to over 30 global
locations. Flexible upload allows for faster migration of
customers’ content to the CDN. Improved response time features
allow customers quicker access to their content.
6. Real-time Analytics and Reporting: Based on Limelight’s
patented EdgeQuery technology, real-time analytics and reporting
offers Limelight customers access to detailed data and reports
about their service usage within the Limelight Control Portal.
Increases granularity and reduces the time to access service usage
data, providing a view of usage with a delay of less than five
minutes.
