At most companies, it would be time to call it a day if network traffic spiked to 20 times normal levels. Not so for Nine Systems, where a 20-fold burst in traffic is just another day at the office. The intense traffic demands at Nine Systems arise because the San Diegobased outfit is pushing the boundaries of Internetbased audio and video distribution with its aggregated content delivery network. Using the Nine Systems content delivery network, customers distribute any form of audio or visual content—such as video from a sports press conference or a Microsoft PowerPoint® presentation augmented with streaming audio—over the Internet without having to worry about development or hosting. In addition, with Nine Systems middleware software, customers can control content access (based upon fees or geographic location, for example) and take advantage of advanced reporting features.
