Edgeware Server, Verimatrix Integrate

STOCKHOLM -- Edgeware, a provider of uniquely scalable and cost efficient high performance servers for on-demand television services, today announced that it has integrated the Verimatrix content protection system VCAS with its on-demand server Orbit 2x.

The award-winning Orbit 2x is a new type of on-demand server designed from ground up to address the needs of service providers in terms of scalability, reliability, performance and cost efficiency. Designed around a dedicated hardware streaming engine and solid state flash memory storage architecture it completely changes the rules by allowing fully distributed, no-touch deployments of interactive TV services, such as time shift TV, video-on-demand (VoD) and network personal video recorders (nPVR).
