Ateme, a prominent leader in the field of video compression, distribution, and streaming solutions, known for its unwavering commitment to innovation, is gearing up to unveil its latest offering, the Ateme+OTT packaging service, at the upcoming IBC2023 event.

An extension of Ateme software

This groundbreaking service, an extension of Ateme’s software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform, will now encompass both push and pull origin packager functionalities, establishing a comprehensive solution for OTT streaming.

By harnessing these capabilities, Ateme+ will facilitate the seamless delivery of pristine video content, ensuring an unparalleled quality of experience while supporting ultra-low latency.

Originally introduced during the 2022 edition of IBC, Ateme+ made its initial mark by concentrating on internet-based content contribution and transcoding, coupled with a cloud-based MCR service with operational focus. The latest advancements in Ateme’s SaaS evolution capitalize on its user-friendly, all-encompassing user interface – a single-pane-of-glass design – and its adaptable API, which seamlessly integrates into existing workflows and monitoring/control platforms.

The newly incorporated features cater to both B2B and B2C OTT streaming, offering effortless integration with any CDN or multi-CDN strategy. This development ensures that content delivery remains smooth and uninterrupted, enabling content providers to deliver a premium streaming experience to their audiences.

Integration of CMAF

Through the integration of CMAF (Common Media Application Format) for interoperability between Ateme’s TITAN encoding and NEA delivery technologies, Ateme+ introduces a cutting-edge option for ultra-low latency streaming.

This option is available in both HD and UHD 4K resolutions and can cater to a range of requirements, from a single channel to as many as 1,000 channels, all of which can be set up and operational within minutes.

Ateme+ OTT boasts the capability to support various streaming modes, including live streaming in both 24/7 continuous mode, as well as for specific occasions such as sports events. Moreover, it is designed to facilitate seamless business continuity operations. This holds significant advantages for content and service providers, as well as emerging media enterprises aiming to establish streaming services through an operational expenditure (OpEx) model.

Jean-Louis Lods, the VP of Media and Monetization at Ateme, emphasized the significance of this advancement by stating, “With each successive enhancement to Ateme+, the magnitude of its impact becomes increasingly evident. This particular addition stands out as a major milestone.

It retains the intuitive and user-friendly interface that characterizes Ateme+, while introducing a ‘service provisioning’ logic that expedites the deployment of new channels, utilizing Ateme’s TITAN and NEA technologies in the background.

Furthermore, it proves to be exceptionally beneficial for covering live sports and events, as it operates on a pay-as-you-use model, offering an end-to-end workflow spanning from content creation to delivery with support for HLS, DASH, and CMAF.”
