Akamai To Offer IPv6 To All In April

netbuzz writes "Akamai says that it will offer IPv6 services to its entire customer base beginning next month – a long-awaited move that is expected to be a major boon to the adoption rate of the next-generation Internet Protocol. Akamai hoped to release its production-grade IPv6 services by the end of 2011, but the task proved more difficult than originally anticipated. Akamai has been beta testing its IPv6 services with key customers since last fall."

  3. Yes, we ran out by SuperKendall · · Score: 5, Funny

    We actually ran out of IP's last year, there's been one guy in Virginia running a NAT for the whole U.S. with the last one. But it's on an old lynxsys, he'd really like to free up the plug to vacuum and so we have to all get over to ipv6 pretty soon so he can power it down.
