I also work for a CDN.

Some of our stuff dynamically utilizes other CDNs. A customer might go try and test deploy something and we might use (AWS or whatever) to do it.

It's CDNs all the way down.

I work for a company people use to build CDNs. Just another turtle. :D

I have similar friends!

We the whole stack for most people, but also run our software on "private cdns" for some. We primarily target devs: https://fly.io

We license software[1] to ISPs/MSPs who then use it to "OEM" Kubernetes clusters to CDN providers.

We should rename our product "Infinite Regress" ;-)
