Cerberus Tech adds Akamai to its flexible multi-cloud Livelink offering

Cerberus Tech, a leader in cloud-native video contribution and distribution, has added Akamai Cloud as a supported infrastructure option within its Livelink platform. This integration, says Cerberus Tech, will give customers another way to deploy environments and orchestrate live video processing workflows using the same interface.

The addition of Akamai Cloud forms part of Cerberus Tech’s broader multi-cloud offering, which already supports AWS, Google Cloud, and DigitalOcean, designed to give customers genuine choice and familiarity over where their infrastructure runs.

This approach helps avoid dependency on a single provider while allowing teams to balance performance, scale, geographic reach, and cost in a way that aligns with the specific demands of live and file-based video workflows.

Chris Clarke, Co-Founder, Cerberus Tech, said, “Our multi-cloud approach is about giving customers control rather than forcing them into a single provider’s way of working.

“By adding Akamai Cloud as a supported option within Livelink, customers can deploy where it makes the most sense for them without changing how they operate. This familiarity and ease of use drives efficiency, which remains a top priority for all media and broadcast operations teams.”

Akamai Cloud is now available as a supported cloud platform for launching new or existing environments within Livelink. Customers can deploy video processing pipelines on Akamai’s infrastructure using the same UI and operational model they are already using.

Zak Putman, Senior Director of Business Development, Akamai, added, “Live video processing puts serious demands on infrastructure in terms of both performance and cost. What Cerberus Tech has built with Livelink gives broadcast teams the flexibility to deploy where it makes sense for their workflows.

“We’re excited to be part of their multi-cloud mix, especially for customers who need to balance scale with economics.”
