Akamai just signed a partnership deal with Iret, the company that handles everything from app and system development to UI design to infrastructure build and ops. The whole point is to help Japanese enterprises move faster with multi cloud setups by blending Akamai’s cloud computing lineup with the big name cloud platforms they already run on. The two sides are basically betting that better performance and smarter cost control will speed up how companies operate.
The backdrop is familiar. As DX keeps getting louder inside Japanese enterprises, depending on one cloud provider is turning into a liability. Companies want cost flexibility, better performance, and a clean way to avoid getting stuck with a single vendor. That is exactly where multi cloud comes in.
Akamai, which everyone knows because of its CDN legacy, has widened its scope. With Akamai Cloud now front and center, the company is playing across networking, security, and high performance computing. The platform sits on one of the largest distributed edge networks in the world with more than 4400 edge PoPs and over 25 core regions. The big draw is how much it cuts egress costs and how well it handles global low latency workloads.

With this partnership, Iret will double down on Akamai’s computing stack while still bringing in every Akamai product under the multi cloud umbrella. The idea is simple. Blend Akamai Cloud with the major platforms customers already use and build setups that squeeze the best out of each. This is especially useful for companies feeling the pinch of heavy data transfer costs in areas like gaming, VOD, and streaming.
Iret plans to center its pitch around three parts. Computing services with flexible resources and powerful GPUs. CDN for fast and reliable delivery. And security through Akamai’s WAF. Iret’s multi cloud experience then ties it all together into architectures that cut costs and unlock better performance without forcing companies into a corner.
