Akamai is joining forces with AT&T to help the telecom carrier better deliver Web and entertainment content to mobile consumers. The two will team up over the next year, with AT&T folding much of Akamai’s content delivery platform into its IP network. The system will be jointly marketed, managed and supported. The consolidation will allow AT&T to offer improved content delivery network services to its business customers. Ultimately, consumers will see speedier and higher-quality delivery of digital content, video and apps, the companies said.
