Live Video Streaming Brings SXSW Conference to Global Fans

The most critical factor in SXSW’s decision to employ Limelight was its integrated video platform and content delivery services.  Limelight Video Platform provides video storage, content management, and reporting and analytics capabilities that seamlessly integrate with Limelight’s private global network infrastructure to ensure maximized performance, reliability, and scalability. In addition to the benefit of only working with one solutions provider, SXSW also noticed:

  • Simplified workflow by managing LVP and content delivery services within the same interface
  • Increased speed in the transfer of large volumes of video files by providing a dedicated line between the enterprise’s physical location and a Limelight point of presence (POP) on the edge of its network
  • Optimized ingestion points by detecting the fastest possible ingest route, made possible due to intimate knowledge of the ingress performance of various POPs in Limelight’s network
  • Reduce reliance on a single originating data center and improve player responsiveness and viewer experience by caching the player, playlists, and all metadata information at the edge
  • Maximize viewer experience in near real-time as network conditions change by providing real-time information from Limelight Internet Health Monitor to the LVP
