Bringing OTT to Over 10,000 Systems
Haivision Brings Over-The-Top Internet Broadcast Capabilities to More Than 10,000 Systems
Haivision Offers Internet Streaming Upgrades to all Makito™ and Barracuda™ H.264 Encoders, Furnace™ IP Video Systems, and Viper™ Stream and Record Appliances
MONTREAL and CHICAGO — April 17, 2012 — Haivision
today announced that it is empowering its latest products with over-the-top
(OTT) streaming capabilities as well as adding a “single-click connect” feature
to its HyperStream™ cloud-transcoding and CDN connectivity service. HyperStream
unifies, simplifies, and automates cloud-based transcoding on Amazon EC2™ with
connectivity to the Akamai HD Network for global content delivery.
The company is supporting the launch of HyperStream Internet media services by
incorporating Internet streaming capabilities (RTMP) across its popular product
line. The products will now be able to connect directly to HyperStream Live,
Haivision’s software as a service (SaaS) for Internet media delivery. With
HyperStream, users can take advantage of cloud transcoding to use uplink
bandwidth more efficiently, delivering the highest quality RTMP Dynamic
Streaming for Flash® video and Adaptive HTTP Live Streaming (HLS)
for iOS devices.
“With the acquisition of the KulaByte™ technology, Haivision’s expertise and
commitment to Internet streaming is strengthened by enabling OTT capabilities
across our product line,” said Mirko Wicha, president and CEO of Haivision
Network Video. “We are giving our installed base over-the-top capabilities
through a series of product upgrades, while enabling cloud transcoding and CDN
connectivity with the launch of HyperStream Internet media services. This is
certainly the largest single increase in Internet video capabilities the
streaming media industry has ever seen.”
Haivision’s Makito™ encoder is the world’s most popular HD H.264 video
streaming appliance, widely deployed within the education, enterprise, medical,
sports, entertainment, and federal markets. The encoder is renowned for its low
latency, compact form factor and density, and performance handling up to
1080p60 HD. A no-charge upgrade will be made available for the Makito, giving
it RTMP and HyperStream Live connect capabilities and thus, enabling thousands
of new Internet broadcasters. Additionally, Haivision will issue OTT upgrades
to the Barracuda™ SD H.264 encoder, the Furnace™ IP video system, and the
Viper™ stream and record appliance.
