The quality of your video delivery is only as good as the network delivering it. With Smooth Streaming, a Content Distribution Network is required to deliver a consistently high-quality experience to your viewers. Nimbus is built on top of some of the finest CDNs in the world.

When we say the absolute best, we mean it. By default, your content is delivered through Akamai, using a platform of over 61,000 servers globally. Akamai, rated the #1 CDN in the world, is the same network used to power the Vancouver Winter Olympics, Monday Night Football, NBA Online, FOX Media, and many other large-scale content operations. Your viewers are automatically and seamlessly routed to the closest high-speed server in their geographic location.

We offer other Content Distribution networks available to all customers as well (for example, EdgeCast, the #3 CDN in the world). You can use the network that suits your needs, and you can even integrate your own content caching servers in large corporate enterprise networks for additional cost-savings. Routing is changed with just a couple clicks and takes effect instantly.

We use the #1 CDN in the world for a reason - we have to be able to prove that we're the best.
