A company known for cloud-based SaaS technology powering both broadcast and streaming TV is now making its cloud solutions available on Google Cloud’s platform.
It’s a promise from Amagi, and the partnership allows customers to deploy Amagi’s flagship cloud playout platform, CLOUDPORT, on Google Cloud to spin up 24×7 linear programming.
“By partnering with Google Cloud, we are expanding the choices for our industry to implement best-in-class cloud solutions,” said Srinivasan KA, co-founder of Amagi, which operates from New Yrok. “This partnership has come at a time when the industry is increasingly looking to virtualize operations and adapt to multi-screen viewing. Amagi and Google Cloud present an attractive option for customers to choose from, as they transition to cloud.”
