A video streaming platform with a modern architecture to meet viewer demand and sustainable business growth
Accenture Video Solution (AVS) enables content monetization, SVOD and digital services at scale, with modular architecture that configures to meet business needs without stringing multiple vendors together. Agile video micro-services speed implementation of new features, reduce development effort, and provide a nimble platform for innovation – all on one online video platform.
E2E architecture provides a smooth path for migration from legacy systems to a cloud-based IPTV/OTT TV platform, and a launchpad for digital services such as smart home and connected lifestyle, to increase revenue and customer loyalty and reduce churn.
Analytics support use cases from optimizing content ROI to improving customer care. Insights into customer preferences and patterns allow businesses to give users more of the services and content they want. An extensive API library integrates with a wide range of devices to increase streaming service platform stickiness, content monetization and customer lifecycle value.
Accenture Video Solution (AVS) is being deployed on AWS by telcos, broadcasters, and content owners to modernize their video streaming platform architecture for Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) and Over-The-Top (OTT). AVS breaks through today’s technological barriers that prevent scaling audiences, while maintaining controls on costs and platform stability. The modern platform is simpler to evolve and operate, enabling continuous delivery of innovation with a lower cost of ownership.
