If my final users have a good Internet connection will I need any Akamai solution?

Well, it is logical to supose that a good Internet connection in the “last mile” of your final users makes unnecessary the use of Akamai solutions. Although is not quite correct for some reasons. As the “last mile” Internet connections get more speed, the content providers will also make available richer and heavier content, and a lot of Web sites aren’t designed to support different bandwidths. To move this rich and heavy content near to the final users, the Web sites will continue to offer them a good service with a quicker content delivery than before. However, since high speed connections and heavier content are available at the same time, it will be easier to maximize the Web server capacity. By serving the content from Akamai servers, the content providers can reach a larger number of final users who can be supplied with their content without any infrastructure upgrade.
