Haivision To Demo Streaming Solutions at Akamai Edge 2012

Haivision will showcase two of its newly released streaming solutions: KulaByte, a live, software-based, Internet encoder/transcoder for adaptive bit rate (ABR) streaming, and HyperStream, an Internet media services portfolio that simplifies media distribution over the Akamai HD Network. Both Haivision solutions are intended for delivering high-quality live video to multiple viewing devices. HyperStream Internet media services automate the power of cloud transcoding and CDN connectivity, while KulaByte’s software-based Internet encoding and transcoding leverages server performance scalability on premise and in the cloud.

“The Akamai Edge 2012 Customer Conference is the perfect platform for Haivision to demonstrate its strong technical relationship with Akamai and show how that can benefit end users,” says Peter Maag, chief marketing officer, Haivision. “At the same time, Haivision will also have an opportunity to display its array of advanced streaming solutions. With our KulaByte and HyperStream offerings, and integration to the Akamai HD Network, we will be able to present our solutions to those who are looking for ways to discover new business models that can expand online operations and increase revenue.”
