Swiss telco Sunrise, a subsidiary of Liberty Global, has launched a new OTT premium pay-TV service on the Green Streams backend platform.
The new MySports app provides subscribers with access to exclusive content such as the Swiss Hockey National League, the North American National Hockey League (NHL) or the FIA Formula E World Championship. The service is available on all major OTT device platforms such as Android TV and Apple TV as well as Android and iOS mobile phones, tablets and web.
With the app, all National League games are available live and via replay as well as statistics and evaluations of the individual games and players and highlight clips. The service is enabled by the software-as-a-service OTT backend and middleware platform supplied by German IPTV and OTT service provider Green Streams.
“We are extremely proud that Sunrise and the MySports team selected us in the first place after a highly competitive RfP,” said Gernot Jaeger, CEO and co-founder of Green Streams. “And we are even more proud to now see a really world-class premium sports OTT service in action and winning new customers so quickly.”
Green Streams provides the backend platform including the TV/video pipeline (live and non-live) as well as a dedicated API layer for Sunrise’s inhouse frontend application development and a 360° monitoring and analytics solution. The entire service and platform can be managed and monitored by Sunrise in real-time through Green Streams’ new service Cockpit.
