Agama Technologies, which provides real-time analytics for video service quality and customer experience, has announced its joining Greening of Streaming, a not-for-profit members organisation focusing the streaming industry on developing joined-up engineering strategies to reduce energy waste in the delivery infrastructure.
Sustainability analytics, a new project from Agama, has been launched to assist video operators who want to operate in a data-driven way to help them make informed decisions on their journey to reduce their environmental footprint.
By analysing fine-grained usage metrics per service, device, or apps, and presenting trends and breakdowns of the energy use over time, Agama says it can simplify both the understanding of the current environmental impact and the study of how alternative actions will influence it.
“By joining the Greening of Streaming organization, we are becoming part of a dedicated movement that promotes environmentally conscious practices within the video streaming industry”, says Johan Görsjö, VP Product & Engineering at Agama. “Agama’s new sustainability analytics platform is designed to make it easy for companies to understand the environmental impact of their video content delivery. With detailed insights into energy usage, carbon footprint, and environmental impact, companies can make informed decisions that reflect their commitment to sustainability”, Johan adds.
Dom Robinson, Founder of Greening of Streaming noted “the groups continued focus on data gathering and establishing a clear picture of the landscape around energy demand created by streaming infrastructures relies on a depth of understanding and specialised tooling to help us form long term strategy. Agama’s expertise in this area, combined with their extensive experience in the sector, will be a welcome contribution across our working groups.
Based in Linköping, Sweden, Agama works with 100 different service providers, network operators and broadcasters, including A1 Group, Altibox, Etisalat, KPN, Canal +, Sky UK, T-Mobile, TDC, Telenor and Vodafone.
