Zignal Cloud™ from Industria Leverages
Amazon Web Services for Software as a Service (SaaS) offering.
London, UK -- Industria today announced a new Zignal Cloud™ service
offering that utilizes Amazon Web Services™, including the Elastic
Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2). By leveraging Amazon Web Services,
Industria drops the entry barrier of infrastructure costs to IPTV
service providers,lowering the total cost of ownership as well as
ensuring predictability of cost. Zignal Cloud™ is currently
available by invitation only, but service providers can register to
be included in the beta program at Industria.com. |

"Amazon Web Services
provide highly reliable and robust computing and storage
infrastructure that can scale to accommodate the demand peaks of
mission-critical applications", said Steve Rabuchin, Director of
Developer Relations for Amazon Web Services. "Zignal Cloud users
will be supported by the same technology infrastructure that
Amazon.com uses.
"By leveraging the investment Amazon has made in creating their own
web-scale infrastructure, Industria can offer our customers that
same reliability" said Gudjon Mar Gudjonsson, CEO of Industria. "We
feel that this makes the Zignal Cloud™ service competitive with even
the largest telecommunication operators."
Zignal Cloud™ offers anyone with access to the
required content to become a TV operator, capitalizing on the latest
technology and innovation in the IPTV space. New service providers
will be able to get started using the Industria Zignal solution with
no upfront licensing or investment costs. Consumers can enjoy TV
services on a range of devices, including set-top boxes, mobile
devices and PCs.
Service Providers can interface with
Zignal Cloud™ through a comprehensive
application programming interface (API) in the same way as their
existing systems, to further customize and integrate their IPTV
offerings. Service providers' local media assets are conveniently
managed within the back office environment of the
Zignal Cloud™, including their deployed IP
video streams and On Demand video assets. |
