Arqiva is launching a cloud-based Pop-Up Playout service. It’s designed to allow customers to set-up and distribute linear TV channels for any duration.
The resulting service can be delivered via any distribution medium required – be that fibre, satellite, IP or OTT.
Alex Pannell, Commercial Director of Satellite & Media at Arqiva said: “Arqiva is constantly innovating and evolving its products and services to directly reflect the conversations we’re having with the industry – the Pop-Up Playout service is just one example of this.”
The Pop-Up Playout service is the first to launch on Arqiva’s new virtualised services. With a virtualised platform delivery Arqiva will be able to quickly provision applications within the cloud at the touch of a button, dramatically shortening the on-boarding process for customers and ensuring a faster time to market. Following the expected roll-out of the Pop-Up Playout service in early Q1 2017, more services will be added over the year.
