The company is engaged in a host of organizations representing the full stack of web and internet infrastructure, from fundamental protocols and network operations to security and emerging technologies.

Akamai helped found the DASH-IF and CTA WAVE Project, is a longtime participant in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), and is now a member of the SVTA, a global consortium of companies and organizations dedicated to helping ensure better standardization and improved user experiences across the streaming industry.
"Industry standards spark innovation and fuel growth," said James DeMent, Vice President, Product Management, Akamai. "That's evident in Akamai's introduction today of new video workflow capabilities that give media companies more control and greater choice across every part of the video delivery chain. The work of both DASH-IF and SVTA as a single entity will have an even greater positive impact on the industry, and Akamai looks forward to continuing to contribute to those efforts."
"We are excited to have Akamai join the SVTA and foresee them participating in a broad range of projects across such groups as Low Latency Streaming, Measurement/QoE, Streaming Video Operations, and DASH Industry Forum, that will benefit from Akamai's deep experience and expertise," said Jason Thibeault, CEO, SVTA. This can ultimately help the industry move to more unified and standardized approaches in the streaming video tech stack."

Greater standardization can help streaming services deliver more reliable and higher-quality viewing experiences to their audiences. Increased collaboration and experimentation with new technologies can foster further innovation in areas like low-latency streaming and measuring quality of experience. At the same time, participation in working groups dedicated to privacy and protection can lead to more robust security protocols.
