Vecima’s Open CDN™ Solution Now Supports On-Network Delivery to Evolution Digital Android TV Devices

Vecima Networks Inc. (TSX: VCM) announced today that
Denver-based Evolution Digital, a leading provider of integrated
video products and whole-home Wi-Fi offerings, now offers the
option for service providers using Vecima’s MediaScale Open CDN™
solution to host software and firmware updates for millions of
customers worldwide via the Evolution Device Manager (eDM™).
Evolution Digital’s eDM back-office is a hosted, cloud-based
solution that enables service providers to remotely manage,
control, and diagnose Android TV™ devices, as well as deliver bulk
software and firmware upgrades. The availability of Vecima’s
MediaScale Open CDN optimizes deploying applications and builds
within the providers’ network, which facilitates controlled and
timely rollouts. Service providers may make use of on-net
prioritization via virtual local area network (VLAN) tagging.
Firmware and software releases can be hundreds of megabytes
which may present a significant traffic burden on a provider’s
network when delivered using traditional public CDNs. Vecima
provides, installs, manages, and monitors MediaScale Open CDN edge
caches, placing the download image files deep inside providers’
networks – nearly eliminating network congestion and improving
download times. Designed for the demands of streaming video, the
MediaScale Open CDN solution employs Open Caching, a
non-proprietary API specification developed by the Streaming Video
Technology Alliance (SVTA).
“Vecima’s MediaScale Open CDN avoids the need for cloud
distribution which streamlines network utilization and reduces
congestion,” said Kyle Goodwin, Senior Vice President, Content
Delivery & Storage at Vecima. “Now, Evolution Digital and
Vecima customers may deploy set-top box updates faster, and free up
the providers’ networks for high-quality video streaming.”
“Evolution Digital is thrilled to work with Vecima to offer an
enhanced network delivery option to allow our service provider
partners to more efficiently upgrade their fielded Android TV
devices,” said Sean O’Neil, Director of Engineering and Support at
Evolution Digital. “Combining our eDM back-office with Vecima’s
Open CDN unlocks the best and most efficient user experience.”
Vecima’s Open CDN solution delivers video streaming at the
highest available bitrates, with zero rebuffering and at an
energy-efficient 235 Mbps per watt, while providing the lowest cost
of ownership available.
Vecima will demonstrate the MediaScale Open CDN solution at NAB
Show 2024 in Las Vegas, April 14-17, in Booth W2643.
