Cisco announced that Tata Sky has deployed the Cisco’s Videoscape Video Everywhere solution, a thin-client user interface application that enables new multiscreen experiences beyond the set-top box.
Tata Sky is the first platform in Asia to deploy this solution and has rolled out first on iOS and soon to be on Android platforms, according to a company statement. Further, this live streaming service can be enjoyed on many mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets such as iPads.
The Videoscape Video Everywhere solution is a part of Cisco Videoscape Unity, a platform that delivers and monetises a new generation of differentiated video experiences, which are personalised, synchronised, and social. It also provides industry-leading multiplatform security technology to provide the critical end-to-end content protection required to monetise premium content and services, added Cisco officials.
Sue Taylor, Vice President Sales, Cisco Service Provider Video Software Solutions in Asia Pacific said: “Video has moved beyond TV and to differentiate their offerings, video service providers have to take multiscreen experiences to the next level – delivering video in a more exciting, and engaging way.”
