The Akamai Content Delivery Network Log Data Challenge
The Content Delivery Network (CDN) solution from Akamai enables customers to rapidly locate applications and websites near their end users. However, these customers do lose some control and visibility about end-user interaction with that content.
To counter that trend, these customers are pushing their CDN service providers to provide them with richer analytics around the service they procure. These analytics are critical, as CDN service impacts the experience of end users viewing and using websites, web apps, streaming, and other types of products that are accelerated via CDN technology.
CDN customers are interested in analytics around several key areas, including visitor information, quality of service, rates and statistics around content delivery, web application firewall (WAF), and other metrics around application and end-user experience.
