August 29, 2005 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Managed Web hosting provider SAVVIS (savvis.com) announced on Monday that pay-per-click advertising service provider AdMedian chose SAVVIS's content delivery network for the delivery of its online services.
Brian Lematta, manager of AdMedia, says the company evaluated several CDN providers as part of its efforts to improve performance and reduce costs. AdMedia was up and running in less than 48 hours after deciding to move to SAVVIS's network.
"SAVVIS showed they could re-deploy our business in a short time frame and meet our performance demands," says Lematta. "In addition, unlike the other major CDN players, SAVVIS also offers a private global IP network that opens new possibilities for our expanding business model."
SAVVIS's content delivery network is largely made up of assets it acquired from Cable & Wireless America in early 2004.
