I would like to extend my best wishes for the beginning of spring. I sincerely hope that 2024 will be a fruitful year for all of you. In the quarter-century since its founding, Akamai has built the world’s largest edge platform. Edge platforms provide services close to users (the edge) and have powered and protected online life by creating a fast, stable, and secure environment on the Internet. Akamai Connected Cloud, announced last year, is a unique cloud platform created by integrating the edge and core. All three of Akamai’s business pillars – delivery, security, and computing – are performed on a cloud platform with a hyper-distributed nature. Customers can now take full advantage of globally deployed computing infrastructure and benefit from lower latency, improved performance, and lower costs.
In 2024, the missions that will become the pillars of the three businesses we will develop through Akamai Connected Cloud are as follows.
delivery
Today, with the increase in large-scale content distribution, user expectations are rising, and a high user experience (UX) based on website stability, reliability, and security is required more than ever. Masu.
As a market leader, Akamai continues to serve your business as an application delivery platform with unparalleled scale, performance, reliability, and efficiency.
Security
Today, business runs through applications. While applications connect businesses around the world, the attack surface areas that require security measures are increasing and the techniques are becoming more sophisticated every day.
Akamai provides security solutions focused on three areas to protect your business: Infrastructure, Applications & APIs, and Zero Trust, and stays up to date with the latest threats. This helps keep businesses, their customers, employees, data, and applications safe from all forms of cyber-attacks.
cloud computing
Last year, we opened computing regions in two cities, Tokyo and Osaka, and currently have more than 20 regions operating around the world. In addition to ensuring disaster recovery and high availability, domestic regions provide high-performance computing resources. It is also expected to be used not only domestically but also from neighboring Asian countries.
We offer easy-to-use, developer-friendly compute at affordable and transparent pricing. This year, we will deliver enterprise-grade scalability, reliability, strong security and compliance, and the advanced, low-latency computing required in every region of the world. We will continue to further develop and expand our services. Looking ahead to the next 10 years, we will continue to support the evolution of the Internet and contribute as a trusted partner and cloud company that provides a safe and secure online life for Internet users.
