exactly the sort of team Russell put together

Content delivery solutions are made by a complex eco-system of large-scale systems and a great professional services team is the one that has a good understanding of the subsystems and how they can scale. That is exactly the sort of team Russell put together at Verizon. My interactions with his team were around telemetry and performance measurement of CDN and I was impressed by how well they knew the space and knew how to efficiently measure and report metrics to their customers.
