The reduction in time of return trip is crucial for latency-sensitive applications so that end-users can experience as much real-time interaction. In some cases of use, that performance is not just an advantage; It is expected for real-time games, live media streaming, and critical software applications for missions. Akamai’s distributed computing regions provide access to […]
An analytical case study of conversation – Saul Albert
Saul Albert, Magnus Hamann, Elizabeth Stokoe Abstract: Policy makers are increasingly interested in using virtual assistants to increase social care services in the context of an aging demographic crisis. At the same time, technology companies are marketing conversation user interfaces (CUIS) and smart home systems as assistive technologies for seniors and people with disabilities. However, […]
K8S of production grade without complexity: Introduction of LKE-Enterprise
Today marks an important step as the availability of the Kubernet Linode machine-Enterprise (LKE-E), our new solution specifically designed for organizations that drive large-scale work amounts in production environments. Enterprise Kubernets made simple since launching Linode Kubernets Engine (LKE), we have helped developers and their organizations use and manage enhanced enhancement applications […] Custom Air […]
Atypical Interactant in a smart homecare participation frame – Saul Albert
This paper contributes to research on the role of technology in ‘atypical’ interaction by examining a situation in which technology takes the stigma of atypicality. Building on our analysis, we argue that this approach provides a model for the research and development of assistive technology that departs from a technology model and focuses on how […]
Cloud for the era of striming: Introduction of accelerated
Media streaming is here to stay. The $ 100 billion segment of the media industry has quickly shed its position in the media landscape. A little over a decade ago, online streaming was a niche way to display TV shows on your computer. Now, it is the primary way that houses consume both entertainment and […]

Developer Portability and Control: 5 Takeaways Key by NAB 2025
Reducing infrastructure costs without sacrificing application performance is more important for media and company streaming than ever … and this is what everyone was talking about on April 5-9 NAB. Believe it or not, this was actually as much as the AI buzz! While running demos and talking to clients in the Akamai hall every […]
What ai of conversation can’t do – Saul Albert
Repair of the common base between conversation analysis and conversation Technologies Abstract Computer linguistics research and dialogue systems share many terms and concepts with conversation analysis, but there are some irreconcilable Di5erences in the way the major conversation phenomena are understood and operationalized between these areas. This leads to a misunderstanding (at best) and category […]
Captures, replicates, deploy: image service updates now available
As your application scale, the manual setting and configuration of an instance of calculation should evolve from task to an automated pipeline. Images are a foundation for that pipeline, making it easy to capture and send the latest version of your gold image in multiple cases. We have made some recent improvements to our […] […]
Set up private networking in regions of calculation distributed with VPC
As they initially launched distributed computation regions in 2024, some of our largest customers have shown these smaller cloud computing sites to bring applications closer to end-users possible, especially during increases in the use of the APP. Now, distributed regions are even better with the capabilities of a virtual private cloud (VPC), allowing customers to […]
