Google’s Media CDN—built on the same backbone as YouTube—is quietly becoming a linchpin in global content delivery. With over 100 Tbps egress capacity and edge reach across 3,100+ locations, it’s gaining traction among media giants for VOD and live streaming. New features like Flexible Shielding and edge programmability aim to sharpen performance for clients navigating complex, high-throughput distribution needs.
Blueprint Data Centers has landed a strategic investment from Northampton Capital Partners to fuel its 85MW development plans near Austin, Texas. With projects in Taylor and Georgetown, Blueprint aims to deliver scalable infrastructure by 2026. The move signals growing investor interest in digital infrastructure, as both companies align on accelerating Blueprint’s vision for a next-generation data center footprint in high-demand U.S. markets.
