2005-02-02, HostMan.biz
Content delivery network operator Akamai Technologies (akamai.com) announced on Wednesday that it achieved a 100 percent increase in total software downloads in 2004. The company said the jump was the result of an increasing numbers of customers adopting the Akamai Electronic Software Delivery platform.
Akamai said its software delivery customers include companies from a wide range of vertical industries that are building their business models on the "software as a service" delivery model.
"The growth of the Electronic Software Delivery market can be attributed to a large number of companies, including traditional software vendors, consumer electronic companies and anti-virus vendors, that increasingly leverage the power of the Web to distribute software online," says Lisa Arthur, chief marketing officer at Akamai. "A globally distributed platform allows companies to realize maximum speed, performance enhancements and reliability for their electronic delivery needs, ultimately reducing costs and improving global reach."
