QoS Announcements: Acision Video Optimization - Scalable Transrating, Transcoding and Caching

  
Acision announced the "launch of Acision Media Optimiser, a key enhancement of the Acision Broadband Mobility Suite. While safeguarding the Quality of Experience for video users, Acision Media Optimiser reduces data traffic peaks by up to 50%, through a unique, affordable, scalability approach, which uses a fraction of the hardware footprint found in most legacy products."

I agree with the main advatage Acision is presenting. Many of the video optimization solutions have scalability problems, as lots of computing power is needed in order to support the foreseen number of concurrent streaming video sessions - which are growing exponneiialy (see - "Allot: Mobile Traffic Grew by 68%, Video Streaming by 92%" - here). Adding the cache feature is a good advantage as well.

Marco Wanders, Executive VP Mobile Broadband at Acision, says “Legacy optimisation solutions.. are economically unsustainable, as they require large server farms to deal with projected video traffic levels and are highly intrusive to content. Acision’s unique, subscriber aware video optimisation solution overcomes these drawbacks of legacy solutions, by providing content transparency and the lowest hardware footprint offered in the market today, reflecting a substantially lower total cost of ownership for the operator."

"Video shaping reduces video traffic in a highly efficient manner, without altering the content. Acision’s leading transrating and transcoding technology can be applied when required as well as off-line, providing operators full control over video Quality of Experience. Intelligent caching reduces internet traffic and saves transcoding resources by delivering transcoded content directly from the cache."
