Akamai’s Object Delivery is for customers who do not want, or need, to offload their entire website, but would like to improve the delivery performance of the static objects embedded in those pages. It is designed to deliver static embedded objects under 100MB such as images, JavaScript, CSS, PDF documents, XML and other executables over HTTP. Akamai’s Object Delivery solution improves the availability and delivery performance for these objects from your sub-domain, while offering configuration options for cacheability and other services to help offload your origin infrastructure. By improving the delivery speed of this static content, overall website performance is improved.

Akamai’s Object Delivery service provides scalability, performance, and availability for static content, and includes the following standard capabilities:
- 100% Availability SLA
- Access Control to manage content access
- Advanced Cache Control to improve content cacheability
- IPv6 Support
- Token Authentication to prevent Link Sharing
- Log Delivery Services and essential Media Reports1 for download data within Luna Control Center
- Site Failover for continued delivery in the event of origin failure
- Flexible configuration and management options via Akamai’s Luna Control Center Web interface
