Kort beskrivelse:
The scope of the included services is as follows: Streaming CDN. Streaming is for both live and on demand streaming for video, audio and a web.
WEB CDN is defined as web acceleration and transparent caching of text, graphics and scripts, server load balancing and failover features.
The services must also include Origin storage, being the storage holding the transcoded media files for publishing by the streaming nodes. DR publishes content from internal storage (DR storage) to the Origin storage. Reporting data and logs, that secure the ability to provide raw log and reporting usage data that can then be analyzed by DR using separate tools for Quality of Experience purposes as well as reporting to rights holders, must be provided. Geo-blocking is an essential part of the required digital rights management infrastructure. Geo-blocking allows DR to ensure that some content will be restricted to Denmark and no other geographical locations.
Vis mere
Blanking enforcement is another essential part of the digital rights management infrastructure, this involves subtitling. Live encoding involves encoding of a live video signal feed delivered as HD-SDI from the source to multiple distribution formats. Live feed to On Demand network DVR and time-shifting is to enable a live video or audio signal to be ingested directly into the streaming infrastructure and recorded to provide replay, pausing and restart functionality to End-Users. The Web CDN service has the purpose to improve the End-User experience when they are accessing DR's web applications.
Vis mere
