Executive Summary
Kontiki offers an alternative solution to the traditional content delivery network (CDN) — a peer-to-peer (P2P) architecture — which is best suited for long-form downloadable content today. Kontiki offers strong reporting and content management capabilities and its architecture can reduce bandwidth costs by up to 50%. However, customers are required to install an application on their personal computers and contribute to hosting files. Kontiki's client base is small but high in stature, including the AOL, BBC, and BSkyB.
