Concurrent Launches Laguna(TM) Cache to Optimize Delivery of OTT Video and TVE Streaming
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
ATLANTA, June 15, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Concurrent, (NASDAQ:CCUR), a global
leader in storage, protection, transformation, and delivery of visual media
assets announced today the availability of LagunaTM Cache, a comprehensive
multi-tiered caching solution that reduces latency and network utilization for
video service providers to maximize the delivery of over-the-top (OTT) and TV
Everywhere (TVE) video services to their customers.
As end-users consume video in massive amounts and in an increasing number of
ways, service providers need flexible solutions in place to ensure that they can
deliver content quickly and easily regardless of their customer's device or
location. Designed to support the widest variety of content formats and
streaming protocols, Laguna Cache optimally and intelligently caches content in
private and open delivery networks. This enables OTT and TVE providers to
distribute content for highly efficient delivery and to maximize the quality of
experience for their customers.
Laguna Cache uses a new software-based services architecture, which offers
flexible deployment options to meet increasingly changing customer requirements.
Laguna runs on qualified commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware, and can be
licensed as a bundled hardware appliance, virtual machine, or container-based
software package. This allows for on-premises hardware and software installation
in the service provider's network or as part of a hybrid content delivery
network (CDN).
Concurrent Laguna(TM) Cache provides intelligent caching for Live Streaming,
Time-shift TV, cloud DVR, and Video On Demand services. Primary features
include:
* Unified Cache and Streaming - Highly efficient delivery to RTSP QAM Set-Top
Boxes and IP Devices leveraging Adaptive Bitrate (ABR) formats
* Edge and Intermediate Cache - Maximize network efficiency and optimize the
end-user experience with support for multiple caching scenarios
* Hardware-assisted HTTPS - Support content encryption requirements without
losing streaming density
* Sophisticated Request Routing Technology - Efficiently direct stream
requests to the optimal caching server to maximize the viewer experience
* Flexible Software Deployment - Deploy Laguna as a bundled hardware
appliance, virtual machine or container-based package
"Today it's critical for media companies to have the ability to deploy content
across multiple screens in a time and device shifted world while maintaining a
high QoE - all done cost effectively," said Mukul Krishna, Global Head of
Digital Media at Frost & Sullivan. "By offering media companies the flexibility
of building out a best of breed ecosystem with their choice of where and how to
deploy multi-tiered caching, Concurrent has stepped up to the plate to help
these media companies optimize delivery of digital content to customers for
multiple use cases."
