Broadpeak, a provider of content delivery network (CDN) technologies, has revealed that Turkish DTH provider D-Smart has deployed Broadpeak’s umbrellaCDN solution to support its OTT service offering. Using Broadpeak’s CDN selection tool, D-Smart can offload traffic to third-party CDNs in order to address peaks in live video consumption. By allowing D-Smart to manage many simultaneous live sessions, with minimum investment in network infrastructure, umbrellaCDN ensures the best quality of experience (QoE) for end users at an optimum cost.
“Recently, we began offering viewers an exclusive look at our OTT service with promotional-free viewing of specific popular live events, with the end goal of attracting new customers to our OTT service subscription. To accommodate the anticipated peaks in OTT video consumption, we needed an advanced CDN solution capable of managing a large number of simultaneous sessions without compromising quality,” said Erdogan Simsek, Chief Technology Officer at D-Smart. “As a longtime customer, we have come to trust Broadpeak’s experience in video streaming technologies. umbrellaCDN is one of the industry’s only software-based solutions for CDN selection, bringing us unparalleled flexibility and cost savings while guaranteeing a superior QoE for end users.”
