Video Function Cloud
Both mobile and fixed line Carriers are increasingly investing in capacity to keep up with the exponential growth of video traffic in their core and metro networks.Consumers, Verticals and 3rd party applications continue to generate new video sources and end-points, and increasingly embed Video as a component of their services.
Video Function Cloud represents a Carrier Centric solution to efficiently and intelligently manage the transit of video through the network. Its dynamic cloud-native set of Video Processing and Storage services are managed using a Smart Orchestration layer, to optimise and support this “mesh of video” transits on a Carrier’s core and Regional networks, thereby optimising Storage, Processing and Network resources dynamically.
