TV headend systems are required by a wide variety of live television distributors, from Pay-TV bouquet operators and Triple-play/Quad-play fixed/mobile telecom operators to Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms and also within the enterprise and hospitality sectors. They play a crucial role in the broadcast ecosystem by managing the acquisition, processing and distribution of television signals with the formats required by the delivery networks and play-back devices.

The unified TV Headend as-a-Service (TVHEaaS) solution leverages modern cloud technologies and a service-oriented approach to provide a converged, flexible, scalable and cost-effective alternative to multiple siloed traditional platforms.

Convergence for distribution networks and play-back devices

Pay-TV Operators can complement Broadcast Sat/Cable/IPTV, introducing ABR streaming for OTT for multi-platform reach and on-demand capabilities to increase monetization with a TV Everywhere / ATAWAD (Anytime, anywhere, any device) service for their subscribers.

Next Gen Orchestration for performance

Globecast built its own service orchestrator to manage live television services processed in an all-IP and software-based multi-vendor environment (API-based). This orchestrator is instrumental for the cost efficiency, rapid deployment, change management and QoS of our managed services.
