Akamai Helps MSN Deliver More Than 65 Million Video Streams Around the World for Record-Breaking Live Earth Event

Overview While MSN had historical data from previous large-scale live events - such as LiveAID, the NCAA Final Four, and the FIFA World Cup - there was nothing to compare to the scale of this worldwide concert and it wasn't certain what to expect. As a Web-savvy company with vast experience delivering rich-media experiences online, MSN knew that it needed help overcoming Internet performance and reliability issues beyond its control. MSN deployed Akamai Media Delivery for their solution. Their long-standing relationship with Akamai not only gives them confidence that they'll deliver a great customer experience, but is critical to successfully delivering an event of this scale.
