Good afternoon,

Has anyone notice any abnormal spike in Akamai trafic in the last 24-48
hours compared to other days. I know it was black tuesday yesterday but
traffic from last month didn't even come close to what we saw from Akamai.

We have some caching servers and even notice a spike to them as well.


Hi Eric,

There were two major software updates that spanned Tuesday and
Wednesday which are responsible for the increase you saw.

Best,
