Operations Engineer, Varnish Software

Streaming giants like Netflix are searching with increasing urgency for ways to balance high content demand (in increasingly high definition, too) with lower energy consumption and costs. This problem is compounded when live streaming is thrown into the mix. Varnish Software, however, is making impressive strides in improving the throughput levels necessary to give streaming services an operational edge. With video content now constituting a large fraction of internet traffic, this puts Varnish in a strong market position.

Among its global customer base, Varnish also offers products like protection against DDoS attacks, and web services for 5G. All told, this means Varnish is offering a spread of products that are increasingly critical to the success of web content, and its G2 ‘Best Web Acceleration Software’ win stands as evidence of its continued utility in the space.
