Leading Online Video Platform (OVP) Powers
Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) Pioneer’s Growth
Limelight Networks, Inc. (“Limelight”) (Nasdaq:LLNW), a global
leader in digital content delivery, today announced that NonLinear
Educating Inc., a pioneer in online education, has selected the
Limelight Orchestrate™ (“Orchestrate”) Video platform to deliver
streaming and on-demand audio, video, graphics, productivity, and
web courses on its popular online educational websites
macProVideo.com and AskVideo.com.
The macProVideo and AskVideo online communities house nearly
32,000 tutorials, comprise 1,800 hours of training, and cover more
than 735 courses on widely used applications such as Adobe Creative
Suite (CS), and Apple’s Logic Studio, Logic Pro, and Final Cut
Studio.
“Limelight has been instrumental in enabling us to grow our
business into the leading streaming and video-on-demand educational
resource it is today,” said Martin Sitter, founder and CEO of
NonLinear Educating. “Ten years ago, streaming high-definition
video was virtually impossible for most consumers, and video was
the size of a thumbnail. Both technology and demand for online
educational content have finally caught up with our vision of
reaching students everywhere. By selecting the Orchestrate Video
platform, we now have a global distribution channel to affordably
deploy our courses to the broadest student body possible.”
Founded in 2005, NonLinear Educating is a pioneer of the online
educational world and one of the first companies to offer
cloud-based learning distributed via the Internet. The concept grew
out of founder and CEO Martin Sitter’s background as a Lead
Educator and courseware designer for Apple. Today, the company has
grown into an online educational juggernaut, used by individual
self-paced learners, universities, and corporations worldwide.
Users have access to nearly 32,000 tutorials, covering close to 100
applications, on 50 diverse topics, taught by more than 150
trainers.
“NonLinear Educating is a perfect example of Limelight helping a
digitally intensive company expand its business reach,” said Kirby
Wadsworth, CMO of Limelight. “The Orchestrate Video platform
simplifies the management, monetization, and delivery of online
content. Combined with the power of Limelight’s global cloud
storage service, and massive content delivery network, the
Orchestrate Video platform is especially well suited to the needs
of enormous online course libraries, a fast growing area in
education today. Limelight is excited to be working with NonLinear
Educating to expand their growing educational library.”
The Orchestrate Video platform is cloud-based and provides
easy-to-use workflow tools, automated conversion to any device
format, powerful analytics, and integration APIs. It also offers a
