Limelight Networks has expanded into additional Switch and Data sites to provide 100% availability, and fast and reliable delivery for its customers’ rich digital media. The announcement was made at Limelight’s Digital Media Innovation Forum, held today in, Phoenix, AZ.

The explosive growth of online video has been a key driver of the increased volumes of traffic Limelight is delivering for its customers. Analysts report that 75 percent of the U.S. Internet audience now views video online. The robust and scalable infrastructure of the Limelight Network CDN was engineered to deliver rich media experiences to today's Internet users, by meeting the challenge of the four dimensions of content delivery: increasing object size, increasing entire content libraries, addressing ever-growing audience size, and realizing the immediate availability of every library object, regardless of popularity.

Limelight Networks selected Switch and Data to help improve the company’s network performance. The company is using Switch and Data’s PAIX Internet exchange, which gives content providers, Internet infrastructure companies and network service providers a reliable, cost effective place to meet and exchange IP traffic.
