Story
Parsons grew application traffic faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, industrials teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Network and app owners were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out EdgeWorkers put application delivery on Akamai. Akamai operates a large edge platform for content delivery, application security, and microsegmentation. Parsons keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so network and app owners do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier application delivery. Application traffic is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join network and app owners without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
