Story
Broadcom did not need another dashboard that nobody opened. It needed application delivery to move. In the United States, network and app owners already knew where application traffic went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.
Ion from Akamai is now in that path. Akamai operates a large edge platform for content delivery, application security, and microsegmentation. The company treats it as production tooling for application delivery, which is why network and app owners live in it rather than exporting from it once a quarter.
Broadcom can show how application traffic is handled today. That is the value: a repeatable way to run application delivery on software the rest of the industry already recognizes.
