EASY OTT WITH STRATOS A partnership between video distribution software company Nordija, set-top box manufacturer EKT and content protection provider Verimatrix, has resulted in a system that will help telcos and TV operators remove the complexity surrounding IPTV/OTT service delivery. The new service, called Stratos, aims to enable the quick launch of a fully featured cloud video solution. “Stratos is the perfect solution for telcos, service providers and ISPs looking to quickly offer a feature-rich video platform with minimum fuss and maximum impact,” says Vikram Felix, sales director EMEA, at Nordija. In the past, operators have had to manage and engage with multiple vendors to complete long and complex integrations. Running wholly on the cloud,
ATEME X ANEVIA Ateme and the key shareholders of Anevia have entered into negotiations, which have resulted in Ateme acquiring 87% of Anevia’s share capital. Michel Artières, chairman and CEO of Ateme, says: “A merger with Anevia and its high-performance solutions for optimising video flow delivery is a key step in our expansion strategy in our customers’ value chain and the conquest of new markets.” The melding of the two companies will result in producing a major player in the video broadcasting infrastructure, with a combined revenue of over €80 million. “The shared vision of the two companies and their strong culture should enable us to rapidly create significant value for our customers, employees and shareholders.”
the Stratos bundle hopes to instead help operators focus on growing their subscriber base by enabling access to a ready-to-deploy platform. The CEO of EKT also commented, “EKT has been working successfully with Nordija and Verimatrix for the last few years. However, now bringing our ‘best of breed’ products into one cloud solution with a single point of contact exceeds a normal collaboration. This means true dedication to delivering a seamlessly integrated system that helps our customers focus on gaining market share and getting more revenue.” The Stratos system offers a single point of contact, a single contract, rapid onboarding and a simplified way to operate the system, all from one management console.
