Ingress eyeball traffic from Akamai nodes?

I'm responsible for some web services and in recent months I've started noticing inbound web traffic from Akamai. Generally the PTRs are in the form n-n-n-n.deploy.static.akamaitechnologies.com, same as their CDN nodes. It's not a significant amount of traffic and it's not problematic, it just has me curious, because I'm conditioned to thinking of Akamai as a destination, not a source of eyeballs.

Is Akamai doing a proxying service (a la Zscaler) now?
