Support for Akamai Analytics in the Streaming Cloud REST API

We distribute our Windows Streaming Cloud live content by streaming through the Akamai CDN. We use the REST API 1.3 “network/stream_targets” endpoint to retrieve delivery statistics.

But all of the Streaming Cloud versions after 1.3 – i.e. 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6 (beta) – only seem to return analytics for the Fastly CDN, via the “usage/stream_targets” endpoint.

Does this mean that, once 1.3 is sunset, it will not be possible to retrieve delivery statistics for the Akamai CDN? If Akamai remains an option for distribution via the Streaming Cloud, I think Wowza has to provide a way to retrieve distribution information with current versions of the API.

Could someone from Wowza clarify this situation? Thank you.
