Akamai Technologies has named Hydrolix its North America ISV Partner of the Year for 2025. The award recognizes the rapid adoption and business impact of TrafficPeak, Akamai’s real-time observability platform powered by Hydrolix.
TrafficPeak launched in the fall of 2023 with 33 customers. By the end of 2024, that number had grown to more than 370 customers, an 11x increase. Today, more than 600 companies use TrafficPeak for real-time visibility into their Akamai services.
“Hydrolix exemplifies the innovation and collaboration we value most in our ISV partners. TrafficPeak has become essential infrastructure for customers who need near real-time visibility into their Akamai services at scale. The growth in just two short years reflects how effectively Hydrolix solves critical data challenges that were previously out of reach. We are excited about the future of our partnership, and are already bringing new solutions to market that solve the real data problems of today – detecting, classifying and understanding bots, rapidly spotting performance issues across multiple CDNs, and feeding AI models with the data they need to understand behavioral patterns and trends.”
Matt Berk, Senior Vice President, North American Sales, Akamai Technologies
TrafficPeak: An Observability Platform for Global Scale
TrafficPeak ingests petabytes of data from global CDN infrastructure with real-time dashboards and needle-in-a-haystack queries. The platform retains complete log data for years at a fraction of traditional storage costs, giving operations and security teams the ability to query historical data alongside real-time events.
For organizations running high-traffic digital services, this addresses a longstanding problem. Traditional analytics tools require heavy sampling for performance and cost-efficiency, leading to data gaps. TrafficPeak eliminates that tradeoff.
TrafficPeak has been deployed for critical operations including the Olympics and Super Bowl, where performance issues can affect millions of concurrent viewers. During Black Friday, a global ecommerce company used the platform to detect and mitigate a large-scale DDoS attack in real time, protecting revenue during peak shopping hours.
“Since day one of this partnership, we have demonstrated immediate value by delivering second-by-second intelligence across massive datasets, not five-minute samples,” said Christina Cewe, SVP of Global Sales at Hydrolix. “With TrafficPeak, customers can spot and mitigate problems instantly, before they impact end users.”
This is the second consecutive year Hydrolix has received recognition from Akamai. The company was previously named Akamai’s 2024 North America Qualified Computing Partner (QCP) of the Year.
