Building AI Apps with
Akamai Data: Vector Search
for Smarter Insights
Making Akamai data AI-ready and accessible for smarter apps by seamlessly connecting Akamai, Zilliz Cloud, and fivetran.
What is Akamai and What's Its Data Like?
Akamai is a global content delivery network (CDN) and cybersecurity company that ensures fast, reliable, and secure internet content delivery. It manages a vast array of structured and unstructured data, from website traffic statistics and server logs to real-time user behavior and threat intelligence. Akamai’s data-driven approach enhances web performance, mitigates security risks, and supports seamless user experiences across diverse digital environments.
Challenges for Building AI Apps with Akamai Data
Unstructured Data
Much of Akamai’s data is unstructured and multimodal. Standard database queries struggle with such text-heavy information, making it difficult to unlock its full potential.
Data Silos
Akamai data often exists in isolation, making it challenging to integrate with other enterprise systems or data sources.
Scalability
Massive amounts of user interactions are logged daily, and processing and querying this data in real time requires robust infrastructure, especially when building AI-driven applications.
Personalization
AI apps require deep insights into customer behavior to offer personalized experiences. However, standard searches and SQL queries don’t adequately surface the relationships and similarities hidden in Akamai data.
Fueling Akamai AI Apps with Vector Search for Smarter Insights
Making Unstructured Data Searchable
Vector search enables AI to explore unstructured Akamai data like text and images by comparing the meaning and context of each data point. This allows your AI apps to uncover actionable insights that were previously buried in complex records.
Going Beyond Keywords with Semantic Search
With vector similarity search, your AI apps are no longer limited to basic keyword matching. Vector search solutions like Zilliz Cloud perform deep, context-aware searches, identifying patterns and similarities across Akamai data that traditional methods can’t reach.
Uncovering Hidden Relationships
Vector search finds subtle trends and connections within unstructured data. By identifying these hidden patterns, your AI apps generate more accurate predictions, smarter recommendations, and better overall results.
Scalability for Real-Time AI
Designed for speed and scale, vector search engines like Zilliz Cloud can process massive Akamai datasets in real-time. Whether it’s handling billions of records or delivering instantaneous insights, vector search ensures your AI applications can perform at peak efficiency.
