Evrideo,
whose cloud-based broadcast platform enables any content owner to manage linear
TV channels and distribute them over IP, is leveraging Zixi SDVP to offer an integrated
solution that enables rapid distribution and syndication of channels to cable
operators as well as to DTH, IPTV and OTT platforms.
Using Evrideo
and Zixi technologies, customers can shift from hardware-based to
software-defined solutions to quickly gain workflow flexibility and agility
when it comes to enabling new revenue sources and cost-effective content
exchange.
The Evrideo
platform is designed to create and deliver linear channels and live events for
TV and digital broadcasts. Evrideo's cloud-based master control room (MCR) and
playout solution uses Zixi throughout the entire delivery path under a
pay-as-you-go model. Evrideo users can also set up a connection or transport
using Zixi in a matter of minutes, with minimal staff, compared to the hours
and extensive teams needed to supervise more traditional infrastructure such as
fibre or satellite.
Evrideo
relies on key elements of the Zixi Software-Defined Video Platform (SDVP) to
transport broadcast-quality live video over any IP network — leveraging on the
Zixi protocol and the video solutions stack.
The Zixi
protocol is a resilient congestion and network-aware protocol that adjusts to
varying network conditions and employs patented, dynamic Forward Error
Correction techniques for error-free video transport over IP with 99.9999%
uptime at minimal latency.
"The
Zixi integration gives our customers IP video delivery with ultra-low latency
and best-in-class security," said Avi Zenou, CEO, Evrideo.
"The
whole new level of agility and speed that our customers win when delivering
feeds with the SDVP over cost-effective public IP enables our customers to
benefit from both worlds — squeeze and cut down dramatically their unit
economics while insisting on the highest level of feed reliability and accuracy
… and that's what we call a game changer!"
John
Wastcoat, SVP Alliances and Marketing, Zixi, said: "This integration
allows broadcasters and content owners to focus on developing innovative
business models rather than worrying about operations and technology. And the
partnership with Evrideo further expands the depth and breadth of the Zixi
Enabled Network for worldwide connectivity."
