Video Network Management
Video Network Management provides a "central nervous system" for all components of the video infrastructure on the network, including advanced media delivery services for the enterprise with MediaNet.
- CDN Integration
- The VCC provides a CDN framework that supports distribution of content simultaneously over any network.
- Proximity Services
- A network map of routes for primary and secondary streaming servers is provided based on the user’s location to ensure optimum performance.
- URL Management
- Viewers are directed to a system generated URL whenever a program is requested for viewing, which protects the actual location of the video stream.
- Clustered VCC Server Environment
- The system can be installed in a clustered multi-tiered environment to ensure adequate scalability.
- Live Event Management
- Qumu provides flexible management of live events whether or not the customer is using a CDN and/or the MediaNet module, and supports any combination of multicast and unicast.
- Encoder Framework
- Connects encoders to the network and provides an encoder reservation system
- Distribution Templates
- Provision the network with event delivery instructions (deliver APIs)
- Multiple Levels of Failover
- Includes: encoder, ingestion node, distribution network
- Publishing Point Management
- Automate the setup and tear down of publishing points on streaming servers
- Server Monitoring
- Monitors server bandwidth utilization and client connections during a live event
- Live to VOD Transition Management
- A VOD program is automatically generated after a live event is closed, with a proposed VOD distribution schema based on the live event distribution.
- VOD Scalable Distribution
- Qumu integrates with CDNs to pre-position programs at the edge of the network, closer to users.
- Automatic Manifest File Generation
- The creation and submission of distribution manifests that provide instructions to the CDN (i.e., what to distribute, by content type/format, and edge nodes to include) is generated automatically.
- Network Efficiency
- Distribution to the edge is handled separately from end user availability. Programs can be distributed via CDN at an appropriate time given network traffic and published automatically at a later date.
- Content Expiration and Deletion
- Parameters are provided to the CDN on how long content should remain accessible at the edge and when content should be automatically deleted.
