Re: Do you have a recommendation for Streaming Video Service and Media Storage Repository?

["Gioia, Matthew P." <MGioia () STLCC EDU>]

We are currently using Real’s Helix DNA for streaming media – there’s additional software ($++) to do the secure 
repository that we don’t have.

We're looking into the same issue right now, so we haven't implemented anything, but Kaltura is looking pretty 
attractive along the same lines:

I look forward to seeing what others have done.

Hello Colleagues, 

I have been asked recently to research how other Universities and Colleges are addressing the increasing demand to 
deliver quality and secure Streaming Video both internally and externally- perhaps a hosted service?

Further, on a different but related front, what system are you utilizing for  a secure Media Storage Repository?

USF is looking, ideally, to find an integrated system to provide both functions,  Media Storage Repository and a 
Streaming Video server; however, we are not opposed to utilizing two different services.

I would like to invite you to share  your challenges and successes; I look forward to your input.

Below are areas we hope a new solution may provide us:

1. A Media Repository graphical user interface (GUI) that provide

*       the ability to share and repurpose video internally (up to multi gbs)
*       a tagging feature, with multi layering labeling (e.g. Google Apps) with easy search functionality.
*       LDAP Integration



2. Streaming Video 

Distribution: 

a.      supports a variety of devices: 

b.     mobile devices (iPad, iPhone, Android), desktop/laptop

c.     Online programs

d.     Marketing USF

e.     Digital signage

Needs: 

a.     Improve the quality of video.  

b.     Scalability. 

c.     Cloud-based system. 

d.     Blackboard integration. 

e.     Secure.

f.      Live Streaming

g.     LDAP Integration

h.     Bandwidth issues

i.      Copyright policy

j.      Reporting-analytics

k.     Closed captioned


Thank you for your time. If you are at Security 2011 conference in San Antonio, perhaps we may even talk about this in 
person too?

Sincerely,
-Nick
