Videon adds new partners, apps for video streaming, production at the edge
Videon has announced that technology providers across the industry, including Net Insight, EZDRM, Synamedia, Zixi, V-Nova, Red5 Pro, Techex, THEO Technologies, and Livepeer and others are deploying edge apps using LiveEdge Compute to simplify on-premise-to-cloud workflows for media companies, cloud providers, and integrators. These apps take full advantage of Videon’s built-in ultra-low latency video processing to deliver better video workflow monitoring and management, improved picture quality with reduced bandwidth, content encryption, instant channel switching, and more.
Videon puts edge computing power at the point where video is created, enabling a huge array of video processing tasks to be completed before content goes into the cloud. Edge computing for live video powers more automated, intelligent, flexible, and controlled workflows. Users can add multiple camera angles and remote feeds to handle secondary and tertiary content that compliments the primary broadcast feed, creating more profound engagement with viewers. By giving companies the ability to easily manage, augment, and extend live video workflows, new business models can be created and applied rapidly.
“The days of highly complex and inflexible live streaming workflows are coming to an end. Our video edge computing platform and growing ecosystem of market-first edge apps enable a whole new live video infrastructure that every market segment can use to create positive business outcomes,” says Tricia Iboshi, CEO at Videon. “It results in never-before-seen operationalized growth of live video.”
Video developers are rapidly building impactful market-first edge apps using LiveEdge Compute, Videon’s developer toolkit. LiveEdge Compute is Docker-based, making it easy to quickly deploy apps that bring the power and flexibility of the cloud to the live video origin.
“We integrated our forensic watermarking solution quite easily within Videon’s toolkit,” adds Alain Durand, Senior Director of Business Development at Synamedia. “Our bitstream watermarking solution is particularly well adapted to such a constrained environment, and Videon’s architecture allows us to protect customers’ content from its inception.”
The growing edge app ecosystem has emerged with novel ways to transform and simplify workflows and drive operational efficiencies. Net Insight’s Nimbra Edge enables cost-efficient and flexible contribution and primary distribution at the edge.
Videon will showcase select edge applications and preview LiveEdge Cloud at NAB April 23-26.
