Kasenna supports Russian video on demand services
June 20, 2008 - US firm Kasenna has provided its MediaBase video server software and LivingRoom middleware to Content-House, a Russian provider of interactive TV and PC services to Russian broadband operators, to support the delivery of video on demand services to operators and their customers across the country.
Content-House enables Russian ISPs to offer branded IPTV services without needing to deploy or develop the infrastructure and expertise required to provide them, compiling and managing all content in its Moscow facility and making IPTV services available via custom-branded interfaces for each broadband carrier using Kasenna LivingRoom and MediaBase servers in multiple regional locations.
“We looked at all the credible IPTV solutions in the market, and Kasenna offered the only platform that gave us out-of-the-box functionality, integrated easily with our ecosystem partners but also allowed us to rapidly customise the interface for each broadband operator customer,” said Roman Kurguzov, CEO of Content-House. “With this solution, we were able to build a complete IPTV offering within weeks and know we will be in control of its future.”
Content-House plans to add network-based personal video recording (nPVR) to its system later this year. The company already provides interactive TV services in 16 main cities in Russia.
