mail to Web Services customers, Amazon (AMZN) announced a new content delivery offering under development that they expect to make widely available before the end of the year. While the initial content delivery offering won’t compete with the major CDNs like Akamai (AKAM) and Limelight (LLNW) when it is released, it has the potential to down the road if Amazon adds some specific product functionality.
Over the past few months, I have been speaking to Amazon about the content delivery market as a whole and about their new offering. As a result, I am under NDA and am not at liberty to disclose many of the details of the new offering, which Amazon will release when the service is available in a public beta shortly. That being said, there are some details I can talk about now including some of the functionality of the product.
