Virage And Network Appliance Collaborate To Provide Solution For Managing And Delivering Video For The Enterprise
SAN MATEO and SUNNYVALE, Calif., December 12, 2000 - Virage, Inc., (NASDAQ: VRGE), a leading provider of software products and application services that enable video for the Internet and intranets, and Network Appliance (NASDAQ: NTAP), the leading provider of network-attached data access and content delivery solutions, announced their collaboration to deliver intelligent video content from the network edge. Virage's powerful Video Application Platform and SmartEncode™ process, coupled with the Network Appliance™ suite of content delivery solutions, can empower enterprises and content providers to easily publish, manage and distribute searchable, high-quality, always-available video content for applications such as training and product announcements.
Virage's integrated, scalable solution converts video into a web-ready medium that maximizes online communication efficiencies and business opportunities. The Virage Video Application Platform delivers cost savings and increased productivity to enterprises by transforming their valuable video assets into easily distributed, on-demand content that enhances corporate communications, decision support and training. Virage's solutions can be delivered as enterprise software or on a fully-outsourced ASP-basis.
By combining this content intelligence with the Network Appliance ContentDirector™ data management software and NetCache™ content delivery appliances, customers are able to deliver content from the edge of networks in a range of media formats, scaling the networks and ensuring high-quality delivery. ContentReporter™ from Network Appliance completes this end-to-end content management solution by allowing content owners to monitor end users' demand.
"Virage and Network Appliance add value to content by directing users to the right section of that content, then delivering it in any of the major streaming formats," said Amit Pandey, director of marketing for the content delivery business unit at Network Appliance. "Because NetCache appliances are multiprotocol today and up to five times faster than traditional cache servers, our solutions offer superior economics to customers."
"Virage is pleased to be working closely with Network Appliance to create a comprehensive solution for managing and distributing video in the enterprise," said Carlos Montalvo, chief marketing officer of Virage. "The combination of the Virage Video Application Platform and Network Appliance's streaming-enabled content delivery solutions presents corporations with a straightforward and easily implemented way to manage and distribute rich media over corporate intranets and extranets."
