Hi,
Many moons ago, we got a set of Akamai servers. Over the years I think
they replaced every one of them at least once. Last August we got a
another set of servers due to a move and now two of those three servers
have failed.
I still have the original server that started garlic.com in production
after 11+ years so I know servers can last a long time. I don't
understand why Akamai failure rates are so high
Is anyone else seeing high failure rates of Akamai servers at their
facilities?
Roy
