Akamai’s content delivery network (CDN) processes about 30% of the internet’s daily traffic, resulting in a massive amount of data that presents engineering challenges, both internally and with cloud vendors. In this session, we will discuss the barriers faced while building a data infrastructure on Azure, Databricks, and Kafka to meet strict SLAs, hitting the limits of some of our cloud vendors’ services. We will describe the iterative process of re-architecting a massive scale data platform using the aforementioned technologies.
We will also delve into how today, Akamai is able to quickly ingest and make available to customers terabytes of data, as well as efficiently query Petabytes of data and return results within 10 seconds for most queries. This discussion will provide valuable insights for attendees and organizations seeking to effectively process and analyze large amounts of data.
