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