PR88511
SAN FRANCISCO, March 17, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
-- Encoding.com's File-based Cloud Transcoding and Packaging Services
Integrates with Ideal's Alice PaaS Solution
Ideal Systems Group (
), the leading systems integrator for broadcast, cloud and professional audio
visual in Asia, has selected Encoding.com (
), the world's most trusted cloud media processing service, to provide VOD
transcoding and packaging as part of Ideal's Alice Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)
offering. A cloud-native Business Process Management (BPM), operations
orchestration and integration framework, Alice is a development of Ideal's
cloud division, Ideal Media Works. The partnership with Encoding.com is
targeted primarily to media companies in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region.
As broadcast manufacturers around the world move their technology to
cloud-based systems, operators face the task of orchestrating multiple
cloud-based products within a common technical and business framework. Ideal
alleviates this pressure by integrating a host of capabilities onto the Alice
PaaS, including editing, playout and storage. By joining the Encoding.com
platform with Alice, Ideal's customers in Southeast Asia can now access
Encoding.com's Emmy(R) Award-winning file-based VOD processing technology as
part of a fully integrated cloud-based workflow.
"Encoding.com pioneered cloud media processing more than a decade ago, so it
was the logical first choice for providing our media and broadcast clients with
world-class video-on-demand processing services," said Fintan Mc Kiernan, CEO
at Ideal Systems SEA. "Many of the world's tier-one media companies rely on
Encoding.com for transcoding their high-value VOD assets, and our APAC
customers now have access to these same capabilities, enabling true one-stop
job orchestration.
Since its launch in 2008, Encoding.com has transcoded more than a billion
videos and processed over one trillion API requests. Offering a robust set of
VOD-focused microservices for file-based broadcast and OTT content delivery,
the platform streamlines transcoding, packaging and video delivery to all
mobile, desktop, IPTV and OTT devices. Encoding.com customers include industry
leaders such as NBCUniversal, BBC, Peacock, WarnerMedia and Fox.
Encoding.com microservices include broad I/O format support, adaptive bitrate
and CableLabs(R) packaging, parallel chunk processing, Beamr content-adaptive
bitrate (CABR) encoding, digital rights management, dynamic ad insertion,
Nielsen watermarking, advanced audio, closed captioning and automated
QC-as-a-service. Customers utilize an XML or JSON-based API to integrate the
Encoding.com platform directly into their digital supply chain and gain access
to content processing in many AWS and Azure cloud data centers around the
world. The Encoding.com service ultimately allows customers to dynamically
scale their video applications, support all popular video formats and
accelerate time to market while eliminating expensive video infrastructure
investments.
"Ideal System's development of Alice, along with their growing team of media
and cloud-savvy software engineers, is very exciting for media companies
throughout Asia," said Ben Morrell, director of Europe/Asia-Pacific sales at
Encoding.com. "Coupled with Encoding.com's market-leading media processing
technology, Alice will allow our joint customers to leverage the benefits of a
PaaS solution coupled with the bespoke features required to gain a competitive
edge in the Asia VOD market. It's a thrill to bring Encoding.com to the region
with a solutions-focused company such as Ideal."
