Akamai, bought through GBTech.ai

Akamai runs a public cloud and a global network for delivering and protecting websites and apps. We help you decide what belongs there, then source it and negotiate the contract.

[DRAFT - pending owner review]

Why buy it through us

01

An advisor negotiating for you

We benchmark your quote and negotiate the rate and the terms, at signing and at renewal.

02

An engineer on the call

Our advisor and the vendor's own engineer both join. You get the technical answer in the meeting instead of waiting on a follow-up email.

03

Nothing is hidden from you

You see the options, the trade-offs and the pricing before you decide. If another vendor fits better, we tell you.

What Akamai actually does

Akamai Cloud offers virtual servers, GPU capacity, managed Kubernetes, storage and managed databases, so you can run workloads without owning hardware. Its content delivery network serves websites, apps and video from locations close to your users so they load fast. On the same network, Akamai protects web applications and APIs and absorbs DDoS attacks (floods of fake traffic meant to knock a site offline).

Best fit when

Your app serves users across many regions, you want an alternative to relying on one large cloud, or you want delivery and protection for a busy website from one provider.

Look elsewhere when

You need to keep your own servers in a rack you control. Ask us about colocation.
