Zixi introduces cloud-based video over IP services
Zixi (www.zixi.com) — which specializes in broadcast quality contribution, management, and distribution — has debuted ZixiFY, a new cloud-based content delivery platform for “the highest quality contribution to a content distribution network (CDN).”
ZixiFY is designed to reliably deliver live broadcast quality video from a Zixi enabled origination point including camera, encoder, phone, or tablet at any location to any device leveraging Zixi’s proven protocol, according to Zixi President Israel Drori. Broadcasting and media organizations looking for cost-effective solutions to help engage viewers and generate revenue with high-quality live streaming content now have access to Zixi’s cloud-based software platform, he adds.
As Zixi software is already embedded in thousands of devices around the globe, broadcasters can now ingest video into ZixiFY from any location. By aggregating BW across multiple wired, WiFi, or 4G LTE connections for higher bandwidth delivery, Zixi’s distance agnostic, Network and Video Aware Protocol, employing Bonding and Multi-Path, ensures delivery of the highest quality content over a standard Internet connection, according to Drori. ZixiFY’s UI enables users to manage, process, store and distribute the video in different formats using any CDN available on the market.
