Case Study: SOBERLINK achieves 75% faster page loads, 100% uptime and reduced server load with Akamai Technologies

Akamai enables SOBERLINK to boost portal performance, availability and security while reducing server load

SOBERLINK is a healthcare technology company that pioneered a handheld mobile breath device and cloud portal for secure remote alcohol monitoring, used in criminal justice and treatment programs across 45 U.S. states. Processing over 20,000 tests a day, the company needed to guarantee 24/7 access to highly sensitive, HIPAA‑protected BrAC results (including GPS and ID photos), improve portal performance for users, and reduce growing load on its origin servers.

SOBERLINK deployed Akamai’s Dynamic Site Accelerator Secure to add edge authentication, asset redundancy and enterprise‑grade security while offloading delivery from its origin. The solution cut page load times by 75%, reduced internet traffic and I/O/CPU load on origin servers, delivered 100% uptime, and enabled greater portal automation (including Adaptive Facial Recognition) without compromising performance or confidentiality.
