LeaseWeb, één van ’s werelds grootste hosting merken, heeft tijdens IBC2016, het belangrijkste content delivery evenement ter wereld, een nieuwe cloud-based transcoding dienst gelanceerd voor zijn next-generation CDN klanten. De dienst is speciaal ontwikkeld voor klanten die video streaming diensten aanbieden en biedt onmiddellijk conversie voor streaming media op alle video platformen. Live transcoding werd eerder dit jaar voor het eerst gebruikt door DJ Hardwell tijdens zijn ‘fan experience’, waarbij hij high-performance video streaming in VR-kwaliteit gebruikte.
De LeaseWeb transcoding oplossing is verkrijgbaar als “pay as you go” en betaling is hierdoor gebaseerd op het gebruik. Verder wordt alle content volledig gemonitord en ondersteund door 24/7 bewakings- en technische steun.
