Norigin launches Cloudncoder.com

May 18, 2015

Scandinavian company Norigin Media has launched Cloudncoder.com, a platform for capturing, encoding and hosted Origin-server services for linear TV. The private cloud is launched with a pay-as-you-go business model to make online live-TV management affordable.

Cloudncoder.com is a live-TV capture and transcoding platform, which is offered to broadcasting companies, news agencies, ad agencies, live content producers and enterprise customers with the need to distribute linear channels or live events. The CDN agnostic platform is able to capture IP-feeds from around the world and downlinking of European Satellite signals. The new product is most suitable for long tail linear content within OTT services, disaster recovery or live events.

The platform is pre-integrated to all major CDNs including Akamai, Octoshape, Verizon Media Services, Arkena and many other Operator CDNs including Telenor and Deutsche Telekom. The all-inclusive ‘pay-as-you-go’ hourly or monthly prices allow customers to make Live-TV encoding economical and scalable for premium services. There are no separated data-volume costs for input or output feeds as charged by most other cloud solutions.

Broadcast-grade infrastructure, which helps prepare linear content for multi-screen delivery, will be made accessible for customers to manage via a web app. SD or HD, multi-bitrate and multi-resolution profiles are offered with an array of formats including HLS, MSS, HDS, RTMP and MPEG-DASH. European 24/7 support centers are also prepared for any priority issues.

Ajey Anand, CEO of Norigin Media commented: “Cloundncoder.com fills a gap where infrastructure for online Live TV management becomes affordable and well supported. The Scandinavian Cloud TV platform will provide the best-in-class quality hosting services across the globe.” He continues, “The few offers for cloud hosting of live TV content are more expensive than they are presented and we hope to change that, simply.”
