Akamai Technologies, the cybersecurity and cloud computing company that powers and protects business online, said it is experiencing a surge in demand for Akamai Inference Cloud, a week after its official debut on stage at the NVIDIA® GTC Conference in Washington, DC.
The strong early interest points to how fast organizations are moving from experimentation to execution and underscores growing demand for platforms that make it easier to operationalize AI in real-world environments. Organizations across industries are testing the purpose-built platform in production and expanding into new use cases in video, personalization, customer support, and consumer products.
«It’s exciting to see the interest in Akamai Inference Cloud, but it isn’t surprising,» said Adam Karon, Chief Operating Officer and General Manager, Cloud Technology Group, Akamai. «Bringing pre-trained models together with dynamic, real-world context to deliver decisions in real time is the future of AI. And that future – distributing inference to the edge — is where Akamai shines.»
