Limelight Networks Attorney Honored in Veterans Affairs Case
It was a hopeless case. Vietnam veteran Leroy Comer had been fighting for disability rights for two decades by the time his case was taken up by attorneys with the Federal Circuit Bar Association’s Veterans Pro Bono service in 2008. Dion Messer, IP corporate counsel with Limelight Networks, was one of those attorneys. Against all [...]
Flash Media Server 3.5
Customers of Flash streaming services now have more options for broadcast-quality video delivery on the Internet. With support for Adobe Flash Media Server 3.5, LimelightSTREAM enables dynamic streaming, DVR functionality within a live stream, and enhanced H.264 video and High Efficiency AAC (HE-AAC) audio.
Dynamic Streaming

OriginDirect
LimelightSITE, the newest addition to our content delivery offerings, leverages Limelight Networks’ advanced routing methodology called OriginDirect™. This innovation bypasses “middle-mile” Internet bottlenecks by fulfilling requests over our own dedicated fiber-optic backbone. So your objects speed their way to your users and your web pages load in a flash — no matter how many visitors [...]
Geo Reporting
Geo Reporting provides geographic information for each Limelight Networks service and each sub-report — in a choice of map and table formats. Color-coded maps show you the hot spots of activity around the world. Choose to display all geographies at once or only the top 10 locations. As with other LimelightEXCHANGE features, you can compare locations based on number of requests, bytes sent, and total seconds — or as a percent of total volume. But Geo Reporting puts more detail by country, state, or city just a click away.
IP Connect
Secure banking, online gaming, social media — you can’t cache your dynamic content, but you can still send these packets flying at the speed of light. With IP Connect, a LimelightDELIVER option or standalone service, you can serve regular Internet traffic on the same highly scalable architecture that sits at the core of our CDN services.
Whether seeding your cache with Cache Fill, accelerating HTML delivery, or simply enhancing your overall deliver platform, your services gains the performance benefits of our private fiber-optic network when you host your servers in one of the same strategically located data centers. We’ll connect them to your users via full-route broadcasting to tier-one commercial providers and more than 900 access networks.
Media Vault
Protect your assets from unscrupulous republishing. Media Vault, a key feature of LimelightDELIVER and LimelightSTREAM, lets you secure access to your content, flexibly and efficiently, while maximizing performance and minimizing latency. Media Vault can secure your HTTP content — as well as Flash, Windows Media, and mp3 streaming media — by restricting who can see it, when they can see it, and which web sites can display it.
Reporting API
With the LimelightEXCHANGE Reporting API, you can access and display content delivery data in entirely new ways. Available with both LimelightEXCHANGE and LimelightEXCHANGE Premium, the Reporting API lets you view reports anywhere – in desktop gadgets, custom dashboards, and analytics packages. Or import it into your data warehouse for integrated reporting with other business information.
FLV Seek
When you deliver your Flash video files via progressive download, it’s usually an all or nothing deal. You pay for delivering the entire file, even if your user skips most of the content. But with the FLV Seek feature of LimelightDELIVER, you can let your audience jump to any point in the media. Not only does this eliminate unnecessary delivery costs, but it provides a better user experience. For example, if a viewer wants to skip the first half of a video, FLV Seek jumps to the second half of the file, resulting in a smaller download and faster user access.
Geo Compliance
Think local, act global — adding the Geo Compliance option to your LimelightEXCHANGE service lets you set boundaries on content distribution via LimelightDELIVER and LimelightSTREAM. This feature uses a geo-IP database to match requestors’ IP address with predefined rule sets. It’s easy to ensure that your content is not accessible outside of a defined geographic area—ideal for managing media licenses with geographic restrictions. For sites where advertising is a primary driver, Geo Compliance can help you constrain your audience to the target geography of your site’s advertisers.
