Overview
Fast, optimized content delivery
Your users expect fast load times for your web apps. But content delivery can be slow and inconsistent.
IBM® Content Delivery Network provides content caching on the Akamai network, so content is delivered at record speed. Serve non-cacheable dynamic content with optimized performance, and automatically scale your service with pay-as-you-go pricing.
