Kontiki Partners With World TV For Network-Friendly Delivery

A leading provider of enterprise video solutions, has announced a partnership with top European video communications agency World Television. Instead of investing in costly hardware to optimise the delivery of high-quality enterprise video, World Television customers will now be able to use the Kontiki Enterprise Video Platform to make the most of their existing IT infrastructure in order to deliver high quality video content without negatively impacting business-critical network traffic.
With no hardware required and minimal set-up, Kontiki delivers video to all employees across a company’s existing corporate network in a way that is network-efficient, low-cost, secure, highly scalable and quick-to-implement. World Television will offer the Kontiki solution as part of the enterprise video creation service it offers to its 450 global customers, providing them with: Automatic delivery of video to a user’s desktop, ready-to-play without impacting bandwidth; Easy and efficient access to libraries of pre-recorded material, such as training videos or financial results that can be quickly cached to a user’s desktop; and corporate YouTube-style private streaming services
Used by the BBC in its original iPlayer service, and delivering video to more than one million employees in over 180 countries, the patented technology in Kontiki’s Enterprise Content Delivery Network (ECDN), a core component of the Kontiki Enterprise Video Platform, only requires one ‘copy’ of a video stream or file to cross each wide area network (WAN). The combination of Kontiki’s software agent and cloud-based server infrastructure will provide World Television customers with the ability to stream live and on-demand video to all employees, regardless of their location or device.
