Why We Invented PEERNAP™ Hybrid Delivery Infrastructure for Video, Games & AI
Delivering content at scale is challenging. Whether it’s a live stream, VOD, a game update, or an AI model release, the bigger the audience and the sharper the demand spike, the more pressure delivery infrastructure can face. We built PEERNAP™ to help solve these challenges by adding intelligent peer-assisted delivery that works together with your existing CDN. Our hybrid Peer-Assisted delivery combines Peer-to-Peer and CDN delivery simultaneously. The network’s delivery capacity grows naturally with every participant, utilizing available resources that would otherwise go unused. By shifting part of the delivery load to end-user devices and local networks, PEERNAP can significantly reduce overall power consumption compared to traditional centralized delivery. And because the CDN always runs as a safety net, there is zero risk by design. Any size. Any audience. Always delivered.

Why Choose Us?
PEERNAP™ works seamlessly on top of your existing CDN infrastructure and integrates easily with your current workflows. It can be embedded into your video stack or object delivery pipelines with minimal effort and runs risk-free in parallel with your existing CDN at all times. PEERNAP™ is designed to help organizations improve delivery performance and reduce costs across all traffic conditions. By intelligently combining peer-assisted delivery with your CDN, it delivers better efficiency, lower latency, and reduced infrastructure strain whether during normal operations or high-demand periods. We offer dedicated solutions for both Video Delivery (live streaming and VOD) and Object Delivery (AI models, game patches, software updates, and large files).
The Growing Demands of Modern Content Delivery
The rapid increase in content size and audience scale from massive AI models to large game updates and high-quality video has created new challenges for delivery infrastructure. While traditional CDNs continue to serve as a reliable foundation, many organizations are looking for smarter ways to handle peak demand more efficiently and cost-effectively.
Cost Reduction
Delivering more content through traditional CDN infrastructure often means higher costs, especially at large scale. With the rapid growth of AI and large object distribution, memory, storage, and energy expenses have increased significantly across the industry. PEERNAP™ offers a different approach. By intelligently combining peer-assisted delivery with your existing CDN, organizations can reduce their dependency on centralized infrastructure. The more content is delivered, the more the system can leverage available peer resources, which can lead to lower overall delivery costs and improved cost efficiency per gigabyte.
