A Limelight Networks Case Study
Cinedigm is a leading independent U.S. content distributor with a library of about 60,000 films and TV episodes and three OTT channels that reach hundreds of millions of devices. Its rapidly growing OTT service—with more than 5,000 hours of programming—was constrained by a CDN that limited video rendition outputs, causing buffering and suboptimal playback on some devices, and creating a fragmented workflow with escalating transcoding overage fees.
Cinedigm implemented Limelight’s integrated Video Delivery Services, including the Orchestrate platform, CDN and Origin Storage, to convert, store and optimize its catalog and support live and VOD delivery. The new solution streamlined workflows, reduced transcoding costs (eliminating large monthly overages), accelerated content delivery to millions of devices, improved customer experience and retention, and provided direct support and architecture resources as the business scales.
