Following the introduction of Unified Delivery Network (UDN) during Mobile World Congress in February 2016, Ericsson today announces that additional content and service provider companies have joined the global content delivery ecosystem.
China Telecom, Chunghwa Telecom, Dolby Laboratories, Far EasTone Telecommunications, Globe Telecom, Mavshack, Paramount Pictures, Singtel, SK Broadband, XL Axiata, Vubiquity and Twentieth Century Fox represent the latest additions to an expanding list of companies which are now part of the ecosystem. Previously announced partners include Hutchison Global Communications, Telstra, AIS, Vodafone, Brightcove, DailyMotion, EchoStar, Deluxe, LeTV and QuickPlay. Ericsson will be working with all these partners, as well as Ericsson's own platforms - Ericsson Managed Player and MediaFirst.
Ericsson's Unified Delivery Network is a global content distribution network (G-CDN) ecosystem that enables and aggregates network capabilities into the public domain, allowing services to be optimized and scales the delivery of over-the-top (OTT) services and high quality video content.
Per Borgklint, Senior Vice President and Head of Business Unit Support Solutions at Ericsson
UDN's disruptive business model has struck a chord with service and content providers that want more flexibility, visibility and control over the delivery of high-quality OTT services.
