Interra Systems’ solutions can be deployed in the cloud, on-premises, or a combination of both. Designed to simplify content management, improve efficiencies, and provide seamless audio-video quality on every device, these solutions allow content creators and distributors to respond to the increase of video streaming through a pragmatic approach that is best suited for their organization. Widely adopted by broadcast, cable, telco, satellite, IPTV, OTT, and post-production markets around the world, Interra Systems’ products enable better quality video, reduced exposure to regulatory issues, and higher customer satisfaction. Featuring AI- and machine learning-enabled algorithms, along with a flexible, software-defined architecture, the companys solutions support a variety of deployment scenarios, including the cloud, for higher performance, scalability, and efficiency.
The companys BATON ABR QC and ORION-OTT monitoring solutions set the industry benchmark for delivering high-quality streaming video. BATON ABR and ORION-OTT perform deep QC checks and monitor VOD and live content from ingest to distribution points. By carrying out exhaustive checks at pre- and post-transcode stages, along with comprehensive, delivery-specific checks and monitoring, this powerful solution assures exceptional QoE for every stream on every device.
As video streaming consumption continues to grow, OTT-specific monitoring solutions become even more critical. Interra Systems’ ORION-OTT can monitor many streams for ABR compliance along with audio-video quality checks in real time. The high-performance solution suite also supports closed captions, ad verification/compliance, and DRMs on both Windows and Linux operating systems.
Providing an aggregated view and status collected by ORION and ORION-OTT monitoring points, ORION Central Manager gives unprecedented visibility and power for proactive monitoring. It offers a real-time view of linear and OTT services, alerts, and QoE information for each video, ensuring fast and efficient resolution of issues.
When complemented by the company’s BATON for QC and ORION for 24/7 linear workflow monitoring, BATON ABR and ORION-OTT product suites provide broadcasters with a total solution for streaming superior quality services.
