Anevia Virtualizes Video on Demand and IPTV Solutions for a Breakthrough Approach to Hospitality Service Deployment

Anevia has released virtual machine (VM) versions of its Toucan VOD Server and Jacana Mosaic Generator for a simplified approach to deployment that brings significant cost and space savings.

Paris 3rd June 2010

Anevia, a leader in video streaming solutions and service infrastructure for live TV and video on demand (VOD), today announced that it has released virtual machine (VM) versions of its Toucan VOD Server and Jacana Mosaic Generator solutions.

These software releases are a breakthrough for the hospitality industry and will revolutionize deployment of video services through the ability to host VOD and Mosaic services on a single server. This creates a very competitive offer that becomes affordable and manageable for entry level hotels, expanding the target market.

However, virtualization of the Toucan and Jacana solutions presents many benefits to all types of hospitality service providers:

  • Rapid and simple deployment:
    • Installation of a software module gives access to a virtual version of the Toucan and Jacana solutions.
  • Easy customization:
    • Application images can be customized at the integrator premises before deployment at the end customer location.
  • Requires no space and no extra hardware:
    • The VM can be installed on any kind of equipment using Linux, Windows or Mac OS X operating systems, saving space and optimizing resources.
  • Can be installed on existing middleware servers:
    • Middleware servers are very often oversized in relation to the services they deliver. VM makes it possible to install the Toucan VOD server or the Jacana Mosaic Generator using free capacity on an existing middleware server, optimizing equipment and reducing capital investment costs.
  • Significant cost reductions in terms of equipment purchase, maintenance, support and installation time.

“The release of our main hospitality products as virtual machines is a real evolution in the way we provide services for the hospitality market. These products have been received with great enthusiasm from our integrators and you will quickly see offers arriving on the market based on these VMs,” stated Dave AZRIA, Senior Product Manager at Anevia.
