Talk:Akamai Technologies/Archives/2019

Proposed changes to lead

I work in marketing at Akamai. I would like to propose a couple tweaks I believe would improve the article, but should be reviewed by disinterested editors in accordance with Wikipedia's Conflict of Interest Guideline.

First, over the last few years, our security work has increased from $60 million to $482 million per-year (see page 3 here). I believe it now warrants being mentioned on the introduction as follows:

"Akamai Technologies, Inc. is an American content delivery network (CDN), cybersecurity, and cloud service provider headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in the United States."

Second, I would like to propose a short "Operations" section with the following content to give readers an idea of how much we do of what:

"Akamai provides products and services in three categories: Performance and Security, Media Delivery, and Services & Support. As of 2017, about 62% of its revenues are from performance and security, 30% are from media delivery, and the remainder is for services and support."
