Managed services provider Firstlight Media has partnered with Google Cloud to support rapid deployment and expansion of OTT video streaming services.
Firstlight’s microservices-based architecture takes advantage of Google Cloud capabilities, including agility to launch services in weeks, rather than months; scalability for growth with customers’ businesses and support for key use cases; and extensibility that is claimed to futureproof platforms with simplified integrations.
Firstlight says it will combine its background in solving complex issues for Tier 1 operators with the scale, reach and tools of Google Cloud to enable video providers to capitalise quickly and efficiently on new market opportunities in delivering AI/ML-powered personalisation and monetisation.
