Company Info
History
CDNetworks was founded as a CDN enterprise in 2000, when e-business over the Internet was just coming into full force. Based on technical capabilities and service expertise accumulated in the world¡¯s most advanced Internet environment, the company established a Japanese corporation in 2005 and entered China and the US in 2006 to become a truly global company. Not satisfied at becoming the best in its field in Asia, the company intends to expand its reach to the global market.
