Riverbed eCDN Accelerator, a new enterprise content delivery network from solutions provider Riverbed-Aternity, is a new solution that will improve video performance and availability on an enterprise-scale, according to a statement from the company.
Riverbed eCDN Acceleration is now integrated with leading live video applications Microsoft Teams and Stream, video event platforms like ON24 and video on demand platforms that include Brightcove, Kaltura and Qumu.
“With the pandemic, organisations are holding a growing number of smaller video meetings and check-ins in addition to the traditional large internal video meetings such as all hands, town halls and training. eCDN Accelerator enables all of these organizations to reach their entire workforce, removing technical barriers and improving productivity to help employees and the enterprise reach their goals,” said John Antanaitis, vice president, product marketing for acceleration solutions at Riverbed-Aternity.
The new Riverbed eCDN Acceleration delivers corporate video to office and remote workers up to 70 percent faster while reducing up to 99 percent of the bandwidth consumption normally required by video apps. slow and unreliable applications and poor video quality were noted by 32 percent and 29 percent of business leaders, respectively, as impacting hybrid work efforts according to the Riverbed-Aternity Hybrid Work Global Survey. The survey of 1,500 global business leaders provides insights into the current state of hybrid working, highlighting key investment areas, such as application/network acceleration and visibility and observability solutions, needed to create a high-performing hybrid workplace.
