LTN and Skyline Communications have joined forces to offer enhanced broadcast monitoring and control for Tier 1 media, sports, entertainment, and technology companies.
The partnership integrates Skyline’s open monitoring and data orchestration platform, DataMiner, with LTN’s interoperable ecosystem of IP video distribution technologies.
According to the two companies, the integration will provide users with greater visibility and control over their content and data across every step of the content value chain.
The technical integration provides users with powerful and versatile data acquisition and control layers, enabling them to access and manage new data sources quickly and efficiently via on-premise, cloud, or hybrid setups, said the two partners.
Alongside deeper performance visibility across LTN’s global multicast IP network, broadcasters can also use DataMiner for distribution management, including service switching, routing, or blackout and rights management.
“Integrating with DataMiner is a fundamental part of our strategy to provide open, interoperable monitoring and control of LTN services – via the LTN Portal or within third-party systems already deployed – for customers with seamless visibility,” said Rick Young, LTN SVP, head of global products.
“Tier 1 media companies need deeper insight across global content creation, acquisition, monetisation, and distribution workflows, and our new partnership provides that holistic visibility in an intuitive, customer-centric way. It’s a win-win-win — we’re simplifying monitoring and control across complex ecosystems for customers while driving closer client relationships for both our organisations. Together, we serve some of the biggest brands in media and entertainment, and we’re excited to deepen our joint commitment to customer success.”
