According to TeliaSonera, the new media distribution service will offer a complete service for upload, storage and distribution of video content to the end user over the TeliaSonera International Carrier IP backbone. The service will also handle all aspects of content management, business models, DRM, security, reporting, statistics and end-user interfaces.
The broadband service is TeliaSonera’s contribution network designed for the transport of real-time and broadcast quality of video contents. The partnership deal gives the company access to the MPS Broadband Publishing Platform (MPP) for providing Media Distribution Services to content holders in Europe and Middle East.
Malin Frenning, president of TeliaSonera International Carrier, said: The combination of the TeliaSonera International Carrier global IP backbone and the MPS publishing platform will offer broadcasters and content rights holders a complete portfolio of services comprising live streaming, download, video-on-demand and secure storage.
Anders Nilsson, CEO and founder of MPS Broadband, said: The cooperation agreement with TeliaSonera International Carrier will enable our vision of a global content eco-system. It is a huge change in process, a change that will alter the way in which we consume media, and where we consume it. TeliaSonera International Carrier’s new media distribution service, managed by the MPS Publishing Platform, will create a solution for this booming market.
