Akamai & Queue‑it

Queue-it works seamlessly alongside Akamai and preserves all CDN functionality. Prevent website failure from traffic overload while providing a fair and informed customer experience.

Flexible and simple implementation

Place the virtual waiting room at specific bottlenecks (e.g. checkout) and still use the CDN’s static or semi-static cached pages without a queue.

Integrate with a client-side JavaScript Connector or plug in to Akamai's EdgeWorkers edge computing layer.

Provide real-time information and communication for customers, including the reason for wait, position in line, number of others waiting, and custom live posts.
