Scandinavia based IPTV & OTT middleware provider, Nordija, along with innovative set-top-box designer and manufacturer, EKT, and Verimatrix, the leader in powering the modern connected world with people-centered security, unveiled a new cloud collaboration that will help telcos and TV operators remove the complexity around IPTV/OTT and DVB-Hybrid video service delivery and enable the quick launch of a fully-featured cloud video solution at an amazing value.
Gone are the days when one had to manage and engage with multiple vendors to complete long and complex integrations. The Stratos bundle is a pre-integrated IPTV and OTT solution that runs entirely in the cloud and is pre-integrated with Nordija’s video platform available on all screens with advanced HTML user interface, EKT’s device management, and Verimatrix’s content security. Stratos enables the operator to focus on creating amazing video offerings and growing their subscriber base by enabling access to a ready-to-deploy platform delivered as a service, ready to launch in weeks instead of months.
Other key benefits of Stratos include unified pricing, a single point of contact in Nordija, and an intuitive and easy way to operate the system from a single management console.
Vikram Felix, Sales Director EMEA at Nordija, says: ‘’I am delighted to announce this collaboration with industry leaders EKT and Verimatrix. Stratos is an ideal solution for Telcos, service providers, and ISPs looking to enjoy the benefits of TVaaS, but without the risk of being locked-in to a single vendor solution.’’
Richard Smith, CEO at EKT, says: “EKT has been working successfully with Nordija and Verimatrix for the last few years. Bringing all of our “best of breed” products into a single cloud solution, with a single point of contact, was the next logical evolution and in line with the market requirements for a seamlessly integrated system to help our customers focus on gaining market share and getting more revenue.”
“We are happy to work with Nordija and EKT to help operators streamline a complex and cumbersome launch process,” said Geir Bjørndal, VP Sales EMEA at Verimatrix. “We support smart collaborations like Stratos that empower operators to protect video content in the cloud.”
