Description: AKAM Akamai Technologies January 04, 2026
Akamai Technologies (NASDAQ: AKAM) delivers a suite of security, cloud, and content-delivery services worldwide, ranging from web-application and API protection, bot mitigation, and account-takeover defenses to edge-based compute, storage, and Kubernetes orchestration via its Akamai App Platform.
In FY 2023 the company reported revenue of roughly $4.0 billion, with a year-over-year growth rate of about 5 % driven largely by expanding demand for edge-security solutions as enterprises shift workloads to the cloud. The global edge-computing market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 15 % through 2028, providing a secular tailwind for Akamai’s CDN and security offerings. Additionally, the firm’s average revenue per user (ARPU) in its security segment has risen ~8 % YoY, reflecting higher pricing power amid increasing cyber-threat sophistication.
