Agama Highlights OTT Expansions of its DTV Monitoring Solution at IBC2013
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Agama introduces support for MPEG-DASH and broadens its OTT client and device
support for embedded consumer-end service quality assurance
(LINKÖPING, August 29, 2013) - Agama Technologies, the video service quality
assurance expert, today announced it is using IBC2013 to present its latest OTT
and multiscreen developments to the Agama DTV Monitoring Solution, an industry-
leading solution for continuous and real-time monitoring and QA of end-to-end
video distribution. Agama will also be using this opportunity to preview its
upcoming Version 4.5 of the solution.
Agama's QA client for Embedded Monitoring is now available for all major OTT
device platforms, including iOS, Android, Silverlight for PC, Windows Phone and
Xbox, JavaScript (Smart TV/HTML5) and Flash. This wide-ranging client support
makes quick and streamlined implementations possible and it enables operators to
gain visibility of the end-user quality experience and behaviour regardless of
the mix of end-devices, vital in today's multiplatform world. Highly relevant
service usage and quality metrics are continuously collected in real-time from
the OTT clients, scalable to millions of devices. No matter what type of client
or device, the metrics can be presented in an intuitive, unified and efficient
manner to create operational transparency for service operation teams.
At IBC2013, Agama will also present the latest edition of Analyzer OTT, its
sophisticated adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming QA probe range for fully
automated QoS/QoE monitoring and testing of OTT video. This now supports the
MPEG-DASH ABR streaming technology standard for active monitoring of live and
on-demand MPEG-DASH streams, in addition to the already supported HTTP Live
Streaming (HLS) and Smooth Streaming protocols. With its combination of
monitoring depth and breadth, concurrent capacity and ease of use, the Analyzer
OTT is industry unique.
"Our solution can now, better than ever, support any combination of IP, cable
and OTT video services; and, we continue to reinforce the position we have
within true multiscreen and multiservice quality assurance," explains Johan
Görsjö, Director of Product Management at Agama Technologies. "Monitoring
information from the head-end encoding, the CDN edge-caches and the quality of
the end-user experience, can be seamlessly integrated to create a full end-to-
end understanding of the service quality - per customer, service, region and
device. This helps operators to proactively resolve any issues before they
impact on their customer base.
"In addition to the highlights already presented, at IBC2013 we will also
showcase upcoming Version 4.5, with enhancements across the complete product
suite. These include improved presentation possibilities with a new at-a-glance
'Worst Channels' dashboard widget and the new 'MPTS overview' for cable service
monitoring, extended metrics in the Performance Management analytics application
layer, and much more."
Agama is showcasing its complete solution for end-to-end video service assurance
at IBC2013 in Amsterdam between September 13-17. For a live demonstration of
cutting edge QA for IP, cable and OTT video services and to learn more about the
Agama DTV Monitoring Solution, visit stand 4.A71.
