Overview
Edgio, formerly Limelight Networks, was a content delivery network (CDN) provider offering global content delivery, video streaming, and edge compute services. It served enterprises, media companies, and developers with a focus on low-latency content delivery. The company faced financial difficulties, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September 2024, and ceased operations in January 2025 after its assets were sold to Akamai. Edgio’s services are no longer available, and users have been directed to migrate to alternative providers.
Mirror Image was a CDN provider founded in 1997, offering dynamic content acceleration, real-time analytics, and instant cache purging for global content delivery. It served businesses needing fast, reliable content distribution but ceased operations in 2024, making it defunct.

History & Notes
Edgio’s closure was accelerated from an initial November 2025 timeline due to financial distress, catching some users off-guard. Microsoft, a key partner, has emphasized proactive migration to avoid downtime, particularly for Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions users. While Akamai acquired select assets, not all Edgio services were absorbed, leaving some users to seek other providers. No official Edgio website or documentation remains active, but Microsoft’s Azure documentation provides detailed transition steps.
Mirror Image’s closure in 2024 left limited public information about its end-of-life process or potential asset transfers. No official EOL notice or archived documentation is widely available. Users are advised to check for any cached resources or contact former Mirror Image support channels for legacy data.
