Egress Costs Are Killing Your Distributed Apps | Prenil Kottayankandy, Akamai

Most enterprises are building real-time streaming applications on infrastructure that wasn't designed for them. Hyperscaler egress fees create cost anxiety that limits architectural choices. Performance bottlenecks emerge because compute and data aren't co-located. And the price-to-performance ratio for latency-sensitive workloads forces teams into compromises that slow down development.

Prenil Kottayankandy, Director of Business Development at Akamai, explains why running high-performance streaming infrastructure on a distributed edge platform eliminates the traditional tradeoffs. By combining per-node efficiency gains with network-layer proximity to users—and removing egress penalties—developers can finally build globally distributed, real-time applications without the cost or latency compromises that plague centralized cloud architectures.
