Limelight Networks supplies CDN

We’re very proud to announce the immediate upgrade of our muveeMix network architecture. Thanks to the guys from Limelight Networks your muvees are now served via our CDN. This will bring your productions one step closer to the target audience so that they can enjoy them without the usual jitter caused by network latency.

The news report on Limelight’s website has the following to say:

“Optimized for high-performance delivery of vast amounts of rich media, Limelight Networks enables muvee to quickly and reliably respond to high user demand for its software and new online video mixing service as consumers embrace its innovative new video technology.”

For example, imagine that someone in Europe watches your muvee; at the same time, this muvee will be transferred to a server closest to that visitor. When more people around that area watch your muvee they don’t have to download it from our server directly; instead they can download it from its cached location on the CDN.
This feature doesn’t increase the upload speed to our website when you’re sending photos and videos across. Nevertheless, we hope you’ll be happy with this network improvement, and in the meantime we’ll be working behind the scenes to make your experience with muveeMix as positive as possible.
