Eclipse Membership providing bulk of Galileo Bandwidth

A big thanks to all those Eclipse Foundation members who will be providing the bulk of the bandwidth for the Galileo release this year. Their support helps us keep eclipse.org humming fast (as best we can for a release week) and offers users many paths to very fast downloads.

How is this for fast? EclipseSource has implemented Yoxos on Amazon CloudFront which promises to be a very fat pipe. Oracle and Actuate are making use of Akamai for their bandwidth. Moreover, Amazon has generously donated use of their bandwidth to the Eclipse Foundation to help take a lot of pressure off our Mirrors – Thanks Amazon!

That’s not to mention the other dozen (or so) members who have pledged to provide as much blazing bandwidth as they can including Blu Age, Genuitec, IBM, Intalio, Innovations, Itemis, Obeo, Polarion, Sopera and Zend!

Hope everyone has a fast and happy download experience tomorrow!
