Akamai

Akamai Technologies operates Autonomous System 20940 as its primary content-delivery and cloud-delivery network, among the oldest and largest CDNs in the world. It distributes web content, video, and security services from tens of thousands of edge servers, many embedded directly inside internet service provider networks to shorten the path to users. Akamai pioneered the distributed edge model, and this network carries traffic for a large roster of enterprise and media customers. Registered in the United States, AS20940 is a familiar origin for cached web and streaming traffic. Its edge servers sit inside access networks, so a matching address usually represents a nearby cache rather than the origin website itself.
