Limelight Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: LLNW), a leading provider of
edge cloud services, today announced that the European Organization
for Nuclear Research (CERN) is using Limelight’s Content Delivery
Network (CDN) to live stream important scientific discoveries to
thousands of physicists and engineers worldwide.
CERN is one of the most prestigious physics laboratories in the
world. The facility is home to some of the world’s largest and most
sophisticated research equipment used to analyze the way particles
interact with each other. The goal? To help unlock the mysteries of
the universe.
CERN regularly shares knowledge with scientists and the general
public around the world. However, it needed a better, more reliable
way to stream video to viewers watching from one of its 260 onsite
conference rooms and to hundreds of remote locations overseas.
After evaluating leading CDN vendors, CERN chose Limelight.
Limelight Networks has servers located all over the world and
delivers live streams based on the fastest possible server at any
given time. This reduces bottlenecks and delivers the best possible
experiences for viewers. It also ensures that CERN events are
scalable, available and accessible everywhere. As a result, viewers
worldwide can tune into any live webcast, such as the announcement
of the Higgs boson discovery. This webcast was live streamed via
Limelight to more than 50,000 simultaneous viewers and almost a
million viewers on demand.
“When CERN makes a major announcement, we use Limelight to make
sure information is flawlessly livestreamed in real-time and to
handle traffic spikes along the way. Limelight’s team of engineers
is on hand to join events and are available to us 24x7 to ensure
everything runs smoothly,” said Marek Domaracky, Webcast Service
Manager in CERN’s IT Department.
“We’re honored to help CERN deliver on its mission of
communicating knowledge within the science community and with the
public at large,” said Emma Whitmore, Head of Account Management,
EMEA at Limelight. “Our CDN is helping to unite people from all
over the world to push the frontiers of science for the benefit of
all.”
