In no market is this more relevant than today’s sports ecosystem, and we are grateful for this recognition of how the technology is shaping the future of sports and entertainment.”
The Eluvio Content Fabric significantly simplifies video distribution by replacing file based workflows and legacy media clouds and CDNs with a hyper-efficient and extensible media delivery pipeline and streaming solution in protocol. The novel approach dramatically reduces the bandwidth and storage used as compared to traditional clouds and CDNs and slashes cost and carbon footprint. It also enables unlimited re-use of the same content without making file copies or redistribution, enables emergent and personalized experiences, and provides inherent content security, proof of authenticity and rights control. The software protocol runs decentralized over TCP/IP on an open global network of nodes—no third-party CDN or media cloud is needed. The latest Casablanca release, Creator Studio, Content Analytics and AI Content Understanding apps are built on the Content Fabric.
For sports, the Content Fabric provides deterministic and mass scale low-latency streaming for live & VoD; end-to-end per-session content security with DRM; visible and forensic watermarking; instant Live-to-VOD (DVR) with no file copies; in Fabric AI tagging, search, and clip generation in place with no media movement; and global distribution on-demand without traditional cloud media stacks or CDNs. The Fabric hosts large archives, provides server-side personalization and frame accurate content stitching, and enables direct-to-fan media selling via its hosted Creator Studio properties and APIs.
