Global Crossing Enhances CDN with Limelight Acceleration Service
Global Crossing has enhanced its Content Delivery Network (CDN) product portfolio by adding the latest version of the Limelight SITE service to its capabilities. Limelight SITE is a Web acceleration solution from Limelight Networks that delivers all the static and dynamic elements – such as JavaScript objects, style sheets, rich media, or personalization elements – that make up a Web site. The latest release offers added control over cache management, Secure Sockets Layer support, increased failover options, and integrated content security options.
The service also includes OriginDirect technology, which accelerates traffic by routing it over Limelight Networks’ private, network-based infrastructure, rather than through the congested "middle-mile" of the Internet. This enables consistent, high-fidelity performance of static, dynamic, personalized, and rich media content.
This newest version of Limelight SITE is designed to address the evolving requirements of Global 1000 financial and public sector customers, as well as enterprise IT departments and operators of e-commerce storefronts.
