AsiaSat’s OCGL uses AWS
April 17, 2023
AsiaSat, the satellite solutions provider, together with its subsidiary One Click Go Live (OCGL), are using AWS for live streaming and to roll out new applications and services.
“As customer demand increases, we have a need to upgrade the OCGL platform so that we can flexibly scale and deliver high-quality live video streaming services to a growing pool of concurrent viewers from around the world,” said Samuel Yip, General Manager of One Click Go Live Limited. “Real-time content delivery to audience is time-critical, no matter the scale, from corporate events to sports and live auctions. AWS media solutions can offer low latency and broadcast-grade video quality which matches our needs perfectly.”
“Our acquisition of a majority stake in OCGL in 2021 was a strategic move to enrich AsiaSat’s service portfolio. With AWS, OCGL’s live streaming service now combines the power of satellite broadcasting with IP-based distribution at scale for the delivery of premium events, for example, live telecast of the Macau Grand Prix and the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the Hong Kong SAR,” added Roger Tong, Chief Executive Officer of AsiaSat.
