Akamai & Queue-it Aim to Improve Online Experiences with Expanded Partnership
Akamai and Queue-it first partnered in
The Akamai-Queue-it partnership lets enterprises integrate Queue-it's virtual waiting room without touching their codebase via Akamai's EdgeWorkers edge computing solution, a particularly attractive option for online retailers with complex systems. Connecting at Akamai's edge shields backend servers from traffic requests, which helps deliver improved and more reliable performance on the most business-critical days. The EdgeWorkers integration is beyond the reach of tech-savvy visitors who might manipulate client-side code to skip the online queue, ensuring retailers offer fair access to hyped launches and product releases.
"Everything from hyped product releases to critical government applications now happen online," said Queue-it CEO
"Today's news shows the role edge computing can play in executing on critical internet campaigns across various business models," said
The Akamai-Queue-it solution is available to customers globally. For more information about the capabilities and simple implementation process, visit https://queue-it.com/blog/akamai-edgeworkers-waiting-room/.
