Today’s online video audiences demand one thing—a quality viewing experience, which means a fast start and no rebuffering. That’s why you can’t compromise on the service. You need a way to deliver your video to any device, fast, and everywhere that your users are. Doing this, though, involves complex workflows that can include the transcoding and transmuxing of video into the multiple formats required for all those devices. Accommodating growing video-on-demand libraries takes planning and capital to scale origin storage.
But you don’t have to do all of this by yourself. With Limelight’s powerful cloud-based services at your fingertips, you can offload much of this complexity and expense so that you can focus on what’s important—providing your audience with great content.
