Content and Media Delivery
Deliver video and content efficiently using Media Flow advanced converged content and caching solution with high scale and performance.
Media Flow can be deployed by network service providers, enterprises, CDNs, content publishers and distributors to improve the efficiency of the content distribution and delivery and to enable new services.
Network Optimization
As demand on video and other content over the internet continues to grow exponentially the resulting traffic growth is straining service provider networks at a similar rate. For example a popular video may be transported over the network thousands, millions of times.
When deployed at the network edge as a transparent cache, Media Flow platform addresses this challenge by caching and delivering popular content from a local cache device thereby reducing the bandwidth, protecting the resources, and subsequently driving down the costs.

Multiscreen Content Delivery Solution
Shifting user habits are forcing a change in the way content is delivered. Service providers need to optimize for the video content while creating new revenue streams. Enterprises pursue an agile network infrastructure that scales efficiently and enables communication within the global ecosystem.
At a glance optimizing the cost of content delivery while pursuing new services appear to be contradictions. In reality both goals can be achieved through converged content delivery architecture.
Media Flow is a Converged Content Delivery (CCD) solution that can also be used as a foundation for exciting new content-based services, such as "TV everywhere" and video content delivery to multiple display formats.

Content Delivery Infrastructure
For content providers the cost of delivering premium content to the end users does not always bring an associated revenue stream, nor are they able to control downstream cost of delivery. For the existing CDNs caching and delivering traffic to respond to growing demand on video and content challenges the scale and performance of the infrastructure without corresponding revenue growth.
Media Flow is ideal for those who originate and publish content, as enterprises, the government and others, or operate a CDN, including dedicated CDN providers.
