About 6 months ago I got a message from Azure saying that the Verizon CDN was going to be retired in June 2024. Since then it has been renamed Edgio.

What is the future status of this service? Is there any update regarding it being retired?

    Hello @Allen Sibley ,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & hope you are doing well.

    I understand that you would like to know if Azure Verizon CDN is being retired.

    No, Azure CDN Standard/Premium from Verizon has been renamed to Azure CDN Standard/Premium from Edgio and this change was from Verizon.

    Refer: https://meet.edg.io/blog/verizon/

    Apart from the name change, there are no other changes/impacts as of today.

    The only CDN product retiring from Azure is Azure CDN Standard from Akamai.

    Refer: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates/azure-cdn-will-be-retiring-azure-cdn-standard-from-akamai-on-31-october-2023-transition-to-another-cdn-profile-to-avoid-servi/

    Azure CDN Standard/Premium from Edgio (formerly Verizon) is still an active product offered by Azure and there are no updates of it being retired anytime soon.

    Kindly let us know if the above helps or you need further assistance on this issue.
