Seems like a odd choice

No AWS or Azure?

This support is provided at no cost, reflecting Akamai's commitment to giving back to the open-source community.

Sounds like it wasn't a choice so much as one of the biggest CDNs in the world giving a free hand out to a project it relies on itself.

Anyways a lot of companies use Akamai, I don't think its odd.
