The Limelight OrchestrateTM
Video Platform Streams More Than 1,000 Online Video Programs to
Inquisitive Subscribers Worldwide
Limelight Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq:LLNW) is now making it easier
for the curious to satisfy their immediate desire to view a vast
library of streaming content on a myriad of topics. Limelight, a
global leader in digital content delivery, today announced its
technology platform is managing and streaming content for
CuriosityStream, the first
streaming service for the world's nonfiction content that can be
viewed on any device worldwide.
“We built a new OTT service from the ground up, so we turned to
Limelight as a single solution to manage, secure and deliver our
videos so we could focus our resources on building our streaming
business,” said Peter North, chief digital officer for
CuriosityStream. “Our customers expect us to support a variety of
devices such as Roku and Apple TV, native smart TV applications,
tablets and smartphones. Limelight enables us to deliver video in
the ideal format to each of these competing but inherently
different streaming platforms.”
At the formation of CuriosityStream, the company sought a
comprehensive solution to address its video workflow and content
delivery needs on a global scale. They selected the Limelight
Orchestrate Video Platform, a suite of cloud-based video delivery
and management software. Orchestrate provides an instant global
footprint, scalability that can handle peak loads and consistent
delivery in broadcast quality regardless of device or
geography.
“CuriosityStream viewers often watch its curated content on
science, technology and significant historical events on multiple
devices. There is a high probability that some viewers may even
start watching on one device and finish on another,” said Kevin
Odden, group vice president of sales at Limelight.
“Limelight consistently delivers the high quality experience they
expect on any video capable device worldwide.”
Additional details on how Limelight is helping CuriosityStream
stream more than 1,000 videos on-demand are available in a case
study here.
