Deutsche Telekom Unveils LiveStream

June 10, 2013 |
BONN, Germany -- Today, Deutsche Telekom’s Business Development and Innovation (BDI) in partnership with Octoshape, announced a new Deutsche Telekom cloud-based video solution, introduced as “LiveStream Perform,” powered by Octoshape. The new service provides the best quality video distribution of over-the-top (OTT) content via fixed and mobile broadband networks.

The LiveStream Perform solution is capable of providing the “dial-tone” reliability of broadcast TV today through best-effort broadband networks. The solution also has the unique ability to reach global audiences, thus breaking the traditional barriers of content distribution over the Internet, which requires server infrastructure to be very close to the end user. As a result, consumers can experience the same quality they are accustomed to on the TV screen, on devices and networks wherever they are in the world.

Powered by Octoshape’s streaming technology, LiveStream Perform is an entirely new way of experiencing live and on-demand video content. The patented technologies employ throughput optimization methods that enable TV-like playback quality over broadband networks worldwide. In addition, the suite of multicast technologies enables scale and efficiency for operators and provides predictable business models for broadcasters.
