audiences through cloud-native technology. Our platform helps content providers and distributors upload

tent through targeted advertising services for advertisers.
The business is organized across three key divisions: Cloud Modernization, Streaming Unification, and
Monetization and Marketplace. These divisions are designed to address a specific set of challenges faced by
stakeholders in the media and entertainment industry.

ing their media operations from traditional, hardware-based on-premise broadcast infrastructure to flexible,
cloud-based systems. Our platform manages content preparation, scheduling and channel delivery, enabling
customers to reduce their capital expenditure and scale operations efficiently.
Streaming Unification: This division addresses the complexity of Over-the-top (âOTTâ) distribution by support¬
ing multiple business models, such as subscription video on demand (âSVODâ), advertising video on demand
(âAVODâ), and free ad-supported streaming television (âFASTâ) through a single platform.
Monetization and Marketplace: This division enables customers to enhance revenue through advertising and
global content licensing. Our advertising technology supports targeted advertisement delivery and through
our marketplace solutions, we facilitate content syndication across multiple platforms.
