Cisco Accelerates Delivery of “Any Stream to Any Screen” with Adobe Flash Streaming Enhancements to the Cisco Content Delivery System
Cisco® and Adobe® Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq: ADBE) today announced that the Cisco Content Delivery System (CDS) will be the first system of its type to natively support Adobe Flash® streaming capabilities, in addition to traditional progressive delivery. Service providers and organizations of all types using the Cisco CDS will be able to deliver Adobe Flash Player compatible video to PCs, and TVs using Adobe Flash streaming capabilities, accelerating the Cisco CDS’ ability to deliver “any stream to any screen.” This solution will include the recently announced Adobe Flash® Media Server 3 software (see separate release).
“The Cisco CDS combination of traditional content delivery and Adobe streaming technologies in a single high-performance solution provides a compelling infrastructure for reliably delivering high-quality content to our customers,” said Sam Schwartz, executive vice president of Comcast Interactive Media. “CDS represents an important milestone in the evolution toward a consistent content delivery architecture for both highly secure and advertising-enabled media across Internet, mobile and traditional platforms.”
The Cisco CDS is a highly extensible platform for content and rich-media service delivery including streaming intensive Web services, video on demand, time shifted television, video ad insertion and next-generation content delivery network (CDN) services. The Cisco CDS family is part of the Cisco Internet Protocol Next-Generation Network (IP NGN) architecture, a highly modular architectural framework based on international standards and industry best practices. The Cisco IP NGN enables the development of converged IP infrastructures designed to deliver next-generation video, voice and data services with mobility.
