Akamai Helps U.S. Army Improve Web-Based Munitions Management Application Response Time for International Users by 83%

The Total Ammunition Management Information System (TAMIS) manages, collects, and processes ammunition requests, authorizations, expenditures, and related data. It handles tactical and training ammunition requests worldwide for the U.S. Army, National Guard, Reserves, and Marine Corps units. Military personnel need to be able to access and interact with TAMIS at any time, from any place. As the Army added new and more functionality to TAMIS, it began seeing performance issues. United States Army deployed Akamai Web Application Accelerator. Since the Akamai solution was implemented, the number of Army and Marine Corps users managing ammunition online has grown to over 8,500 and monthly transactions have increased to over 300,000.
