I am the web guy for a large TV station. Our site is cached by Akamai. Pages render perfectly in our testing environment (not cached) and on our "origin" page (again, not cached), but when they are viewed on our live environment (the cached site), they do not render exactly the same as how I coded them. Maybe it's a tiny bit of spacing, ...
Hi, anybody know how often akamai servers refresh their cache? I'm a webdesigner, and we use akamai's servers to cache frequently accessed files. When uploading and overwriting files to the akamai FTP, i can't see my new file reflected live. Anybody have any experience with this? thanks! ...
i'm testing a flash site with Charles Proxy. It doesn't appear to be throttling the video stream from Akamai that we're using. Is there a way to simulate how the stream will work on a slow connection? ...
I'm digging through Akamai logs, downloading excel sheets, and then manually joining them so that I can do sorting of data to find top videos and referrers. Are there any tools you know of to help with this kind of processing? I'm looking for something like Urchin used to be for Apache logs, but for Akamai logs. Thanks! ...
I am wondering if anyone has an simple answer to this. If you hit an Akamai server for an image, but the response is returned with a 304 code instead of a 200, does Akamai charge for the call since no data is returned with a 304 and image is served from the browser cache? ...
Hi all, I am building this iphone app for a client and they have a large set of flash video files that they need to play/stream to the iphone. I understand that the iphone doesnt natively support flv playback but isnt there anything I can do to get around this problem? In case it helps, they are using the akamai flash player on their w...
I have an ftp directory with Akamai now and I need to upload images as fast as possible (possibly 1+ million per day) What would be the fastest way to sync local files to an ftp site? thanks ...
Has anyone used Akamai's EdgeCache in front of a Django-based application? Is there anything specific needed in terms of configuration/middleware on the Django side to ensure Akamai is fully utilized? ...
Hi guys, I'm setting the headers for a web page to CacheControlMaxAge 900 secs. This works well with Akamai and all the browsers ignore this setting except IE which caches the page for 9 minutes. What I want is to have only Akamai cache the page for 9 minutes and no caching done by the browser (IE this is the one we have troubles with)...
I call a 3rd party webservice for some content. I dont want to call them every time. Instead, I am planning to create a mirror bucket/customer origin to the webservice so that I always request content from the CDN and the CDN can throttle the requests to the 3rd party. My question is, to implement this, does the 3rd party need to kno...
I know this stream works because of two reasons: 1) It works OUTSIDE of OSMF 2) It works in the akamai support player: http://support.akamai.com/flash/ I don't believe the current akamai support player is using OSMF (which is suprising since they built the predecessor to osmf..) My question is: How in the world do I play a live str...
I built the getaddrinfo() sample provided at http://beej.us/guide/bgnet/output/html/multipage/syscalls.html#getaddrinfo When I run it on an example domain, such facebook.com it lists three (3) IP address: IPv4: 69.63.189.11 IPv4: 69.63.189.16 IPv4: 69.63.181.12 I know, however, that there are quite a few more addresses (at leas...
I was wondering if anyone has any links to on how to implement Akamai's Edgescape solution to get the zip code? I tried scouring the web for some sort of documentation from Akamai, but couldn't find any docs online, thought I would ask here first before contacting them. ...
