They are not operating anymore as far as i know Mehmet On Thu, Oct 29, 2026 at 10:39 Aaron Gould via NANOG <nanog@lists.nanog.org> wrote:

Anybody using Qwilt CDN? It's my understanding that Qwilt is an open cdn caching system providing content caching for things like Paramount Streaming (Paramount+, CBS, Pluto TV), Disney Streaming (Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+), and perhaps others.

I've deployed well-known cdn embedded caches in ISP network (Netflix OCA, Meta MNA, etc). How does Qwilt compare to those? I'd like to hear from those who have deployed Qwilt or folks working for Qwilt.

I understand it works with STVA (Streaming Video Technology Alliance) standard API's... so I wonder how all that works too.

...and if it makes sense for me to deploy Qwilt, what would be the first steps to get started.

I have ~65,000 eyeballs w/~90% of those being FTTH.

We used to peer with them at IXes all around the US. They pulled out of all of them a little over a year ago. fwiw On 10/29/26 16:07, Mehmet Akcin via NANOG wrote:

Traffic is near zero in their caches.
