ATEME Titan Integrated With Cerberus’ Livelink
ATEME’s Titan video-processing solution is integrated into Cerberus Tech’s Livelink IP delivery platform.
Damien Lucas, CPO, ATEME explains: “To be truly multi-cloud, Cerberus Tech needed a transcoding solution that wasn’t intrinsically built into a specific cloud provider. Titan met this need, offering the flexibility that Livelink customers have come to expect, by supporting multi-cloud, live delivery services that can be easily customized.”
Livelink is described as an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) that reduces the cost of contribution by allowing broadcasters to self-manage IP feeds, from any location to any destination. Livelink enables customers to transport live linear and OTT content from point-to-point or multi-point. It combines a protocol-agnostic, multi-cloud compatible infrastructure with low-latency global reach, which is facilitated by a network of technical partners.
Independently, Titan can be deployed for entire head-ends, but for ease-of-use within Livelink, customers are provided with a curated set of transcoding options that support most broadcasting use cases. These include the Titan software-based live transcoding, packaging and origin capabilities. These options have been seamlessly integrated into the Livelink interface and can be deployed on each broadcaster’s preferred cloud provider.
Beyond enabling high-quality images, TITAN also supports processing multiple audio channels, which is essential for live sporting events with commentary and effects and also the carriage of all data services. It also supports the latest in content protection, including BISS-CA and various watermarking technologies.
Chris Clarke, CEO, Cerberus Tech, added: “Cerberus Tech has been a partner and customer of ATEME for 5 years. We are pleased to take our existing partnership to the next level by offering a seamless TITAN transcoding integration to our Livelink customers. ATEME plays a valuable role in our interoperable partner network and TITAN provides the ideal multi-tool encoding integration for our agnostic infrastructure.”
