Globecast At CABSAT 2018
A

t CABSAT 2018, Globecast is
announcing its new Cloud Channel
Playout solution for SD, HD and 4K
channels.
This solution claims to significantly
enhance
service
deployment
efficiency, reduces time-to-market,
and allows broadcasters to reach
new international markets with
lower upfront investment. With this
approach, flexibility is very high. The
number of channels can be increased
or reduced within days and the
channel branding mix reshuffled for
particular audiences and events.
The new Cloud Channel Playout
offer from Globecast also provides
broadcasters with an opportunity to
increase revenue from international
markets
by
localisation
of
advertisements, programming and
channel branding at a country level, or
even at a per-affiliate level, based on
local consumer needs.

exposing content to the Internet, it is
critical today for broadcasters to both
ensure hardware redundancy and
content security. Globecast provides
a range of disaster recovery solutions

solutions to a full mirror of the primary
master control operation, keeping
customer businesses running through
all eventualities.

with its sister company Orange Cyber
Defense to provide solutions to help
protect priority IT platforms (OTT, VOD
and playout).

latest advances in its telco services.

repurposing, corrections, etc., making
content available transparently for the
end-users, regardless of location.

Tedial's system architecture has been
tailored for the Cloud with a flexible
infrastructure and native S3 support.
