Oct 2, 2003 : Clairns to Deploy Speedera SpeedSuite

📅 October 2, 2003 - Speedera Networks Inc. (speedera.com), a content delivery service provider, said today that Clarins, a vendor of skin care products, has chosen to deploy SpeedSuite, its distributed delivery solution, to improve the availability and performance of its Web site.

Speedera's SpeedSuite offers site delivery, on-demand streaming media, load balancing, content management capabilities, security, and advanced site monitoring services.
"Our Web site is an important global marketing tool so it is crucial that its performance reflects the upscale, quality image of the Clarins brand," said Olivier Courtin, general manager at Clarins. "Outsourcing to Speedera ensures that our Web site experience reflects the quality we need to preserve for our brand image, the scalability we require to grow our business, and the ability to reduce Web infrastructure and operating costs. Entrusting our Web site needs to Speedera enables us to focus on our core business."
The company said the deployment enables Clarins to extend its global reach outside of France into Asia and North America, while reducing the expense of building out Web site infrastructure.
"Global retailers and vendors of branded consumer goods are challenged with building a Web site that performs fast and reliably, no matter where the customer is located and no matter how heavy the holiday shopping traffic,? said Ajit Gupta, CEO and president of Speedera Networks. "Speedera's service benefits renowned brands such as Clarins by providing them a global footprint on demand in a fraction of the time and cost it would have taken them to build the infrastructure on their own, and by delivering a superior web experience that reinforces the quality image of the brand."
