Akamai customizes open source congestion control algorithm
Akamai is using a congestion control algorithm that was originally developed by Google to optimize streaming video traffic on its content delivery network (CDN) platform. The algorithm is called the Bottleneck Bandwidth and RTT (BBR).
Internet traffic rides on an underlying transport protocol, the most popular of which is TCP. As CDN traffic is delivered into last mile networks, it often hits a lot of interference that increases degradation. Congestion control algorithms are used to combat that degradation. Alex Balford, senior product marketing manager at Akamai, said Akamai uses about five different congestion control algorithms that work with TCP. Some of these algorithms are proprietary and some are open source.
