Latin America. Ooyala introduced a new set of improvements in Ooyala Live. Your end-to-end solution for effortless creation, management, delivery and monetization of live streamed events and linear TV channels on any device. Among the developments we find Ooyala Live that, through a combination of real-time monitoring and improvements in support, generates high availability channels, which can now offer content providers 99.95% airtime for their video transmissions.
"The wireless trend has been called a 'revolution,' but it might not be a fair fight until streaming services can provide consistent and reliable video quality, with no lag and latency issues, stuttering, blackouts and other impediments," said Jonathan Huberman, CEO of Ooyala.
He added, "We saw growing demand from our larger customers in media and television for premium features in live streams like the ones we're introducing today. And they seek in turn to provide the best experience to consumers wherever they are and on any device. This combination of enhancements to Ooyala Live will allow publishers to have an innovative, ready-to-use solution that they can have up and running in minutes. From now on, they will be able to broadcast with the highest quality, and reliability possible, whether it is live-streamed content, such as a sporting event, or traditional TV channel."
"Ooyala Live allows us to expand our live programming offering, adapt it to our business model and adjust as market and consumer demands change" Jorge Martin, CIO at MediaSet Spain.
With these new features, among others, Ooyala offers publishers around the world a simpler and more reliable live streaming solution:
Ooyala Live NOC. The Network Operation Center provides 24/7 monitoring of live events and traditional channels, all by live broadcast engineers to identify and fix potential problems before they affect viewers.
High availability (HA). Designed for customers who require continuous channel availability and uninterrupted display, High Availability provides automatic jumps from multiple regions to a secondary channel, should any disruption occur on the primary channel.
Managed services. Ooyala executes the operation entirely, offering 99.95% airtime, plus training, channel configuration and management, real-time monitoring, quality of service and experience reports, and direct support from Ooyala Live Operations Team.
Low latency. Ooyala Live now has the ability to stream in low-latency mode and the ability to block streams based on the location of the viewer's zip code.
Live video is becoming the fastest-growing segment in internet broadcasts, and is expected to be 13% by 2021 up from 3% in 2016, according to a Cisco report.
Ooyala Live was designed with a focus on ease of use to help broadcasters, other TV and video content providers, online media operators and publishers achieve their goals and monetize their audiences with high-quality, highly reliable live streams. The integrated end-to-end solution offers all the advantages of the Ooyala video platform, including content management, analytics, monetization, publishing and management of channels, events and recordings from VOD to live video.
