IneoQuest Showcases Free Evaluation Video Analytics Software for Multi-screen Applications at IBC 2011
IneoQuest demonstrates software that provides end client video QoS & QoE analytics empowering Microsoft® and Apple® app developers
MANSFIELD, Mass. – September 9, 2011 – IneoQuest, the global leader in video quality and service assurance, today announces it will be previewing the new video analytics software library for video apps intended for use with Apple® mobile devices (iPad® and iPhone®) and the Microsoft® Silverlight® platform. Come see a live demonstration in stand # 1.C39 at IBC2011.
Internet and mobile video present many opportunities for content and service providers to reach consumers with easily accessible content in more places than ever before. This content accessibility has not only increased the complexities of video delivery through content delivery networks (CDN) and in the last mile, it has also decreased the visibility into the video quality, removing the ability to understand the viewer’s experience, and where and when the issues occur in a multiple network provider architecture.
IneoQuest’s solution offers simplicity and clarity by providing visibility into the quality of experience and analytics at the consumer’s device. It enhances any video app by measuring, collecting, and reporting end client statistics and QoS & QoE metrics, including VeriStream™, the industry’s first QoS metric developed specifically for internet and mobile video. By incorporating the patented VeriStream™ QoS measurement into the video app, it provides insight into the delivery issues that could be at the origin of the video, the CDN, the last mile, or the client device.
“We need to empower the developer community. Allowing them to freely compile this measurement technology component into their video app for evaluation purposes assists the developers to overcome the challenges of creating a home grown or custom measurement strategy, saving them time and resources,” said Marc Todd, President and CEO of IneoQuest.
IneoQuest also offers a cloud-based video analytics service that aggregates and correlates the real-time quality metrics and viewer statistics from all connected devices, on a subscription-fee basis. This gives users of the service an unprecedented view of their video performance even when the service crosses multiple providers, CDNs, and consumer devices, which is key for a provider’s operations and marketing as well as service level agreements (SLA). This subscription fee-based service is possible when the optional data transfer function is enabled in video analytics software. When activated, the service offers a cost-effective approach to gathering the business intelligence needed to deliver high quality multiscreen video services. Todd added, "IneoQuest is confident that developers and end users -- once exposed to the analytics available via our free, evaluation software -- will want access to our full-featured, fee-based software and video analytics.
Todd further stated, “this new technology and business approach to online and streaming video quality and analytics at the end client matches the evolution of intelligent consumer devices and the cost structure of applications that run on them.“
Over-the-Top (OTT) and other Video Service Providers can combine IneoQuest's subscription service along with other IneoQuest solution components (iVMS®-ASM, Expedus® DVA, IQDialogue® ASM and Expedus® ASM) to build a true end-to-end Adaptive Streaming Video Service Assurance solution.
