Akamai runs Plone

It's all a big party — several high-profile sites have revealed that they run Plone over the past week, and now we can add Akamai to that list.

If you don't know Akamai, they are a company that essentially hosts content for events and sites that need immense amounts of bandwidth and quick response times.

They power large sites like the Apple website, as well as sites that need a lot of bandwidth for a short time, like the Winter Olympics 2006 event in Turin. They routinely serve up about 10-20% of all the world's web traffic.

And they use Plone to build their web site. Who's next?

Have a look at the sites that are already running Plone.

Alex Limi makes software easier to use. Founder of the Plone project, he currently lives in San Francisco, and previously worked at Jarn & Google .

He’s currently Firefox UX Lead at Mozilla .
