Fireside chat exploring how enterprises can leverage real-time intelligence and edge computing to drive operational efficiency. Covers why real-time responsiveness matters, how distributed architectures overcome cloud limitations, and practical steps for becoming a real-time enterprise.
On-demand session with Bryan Glick (Computer Weekly) exploring key trends shaping cloud innovation in EMEA in 2025, including AI integration, edge-native applications, and distributed cloud, with focus on application modernisation and cost optimisation.
John Bradshaw walks through the phased rollout of Akamai's Generalized Edge Compute (Gecko) — 25 regions imminent, 75 more to follow — and outlines the next waves of managed containers and fleet management designed to let developers run workloads close to users globally.
John Bradshaw argues that edge computing transforms developer experience by letting programmers think of their workload as a fully distributed application — positioning larger components closer to end users and fundamentally changing how distributed systems are architected.
John Bradshaw discusses the operational and architectural challenges of edge computing — from distributed data gravity to workload orchestration — and how Akamai is simplifying the landscape for operators and developers to keep workflows seamless.
John Bradshaw explains how Akamai's industry partnerships bring data and compute closer to end users — using gaming as the canonical low-latency example — and why the company facilitates billions of interactions a day without ever touching the consumer directly.
John Bradshaw unpacks Akamai's Generalized Edge Compute (Gecko) platform — bringing full compute within milliseconds of users worldwide to power complex workloads and edge inference — and previews the 2024 roadmap spanning 100 regions, managed containers, and fleet management.
