Digital media specialist Vermantia has joined forces with cloud-based streaming technology provider Octoshape to deliver an end-to-end gaming and entertainment solution for operators.
The companies said the joint solution would offer creation, management and delivery of social, mobile and virtual games, combined with a “superior multiscreen” broadband television viewing experience.
The solution will combine Vermantia’s live sports betting, virtual gaming and sport-related content with the broadcasting capabilities of Octoshape, making it accessible to all broadband devices.
In addition, the product will also utilise Octoshape’s set-top box and Infinite Uplink solutions in order to transfer content to clients around the world, with the cloud-streaming service helping to reduce delivery costs.
“Partnering with Vermantia opens up a brand new business vertical for Octoshape while delivering the ultimate gaming experience,” Octoshape’s chief executive officer Michael Koehn Milland said.
“Their solution effortlessly combines the creative, aggregation and management aspects of on-line gaming and entertainment, opening new revenue opportunities for the operator.”
Filippos Antonopoulos, chief executive officer of Vermantia, added: “Octoshape excels in delivering television quality experiences across best-effort networks and with business models that enable operators to run a successful OTT gaming and entertainment service.”
