The video assets are on Akamai (or Limelight). Everything else runs through a cluster of Varnish Servers. Ideally we'd have all Olympic image and file assets on Amazon S3 or similar but it's a fairly integrated system across all their sites so it's hard to consider moving just one site. For example, http://media.olympics.com.au syndicates galleries and video assets to all Olympic web assets. However, now that FarCry 6.3 natively supports a number of CDN solutions it's likely we'll upgrade the publishing platform and switch on a CDN in the lead up to the Games in Jan/Feb 2014 when the traffic starts to pick up.
