Early on, when AfterBuzz was growing quickly and adding more shows to their postgame streaming service, their servers couldn’t handle the volume to deliver the fast, seamless user experience their viewers expected. AfterBuzz enlisted Akamai to enable them to deliver postgame coverage to their global user base. Now, regardless of the viewer’s location or device type, they get a fast, consistent viewing experience of their favorite shows.
