Access all areas: ScheduALL Connector locates best fit, most cost-effective providers


It’s all in the Cloud Alticast Bt Ian McMurray Accessing inventories in realtime ScheduALL By Ian McMurray


Uniting all the systems within the enterprise and across business partners and giving realtime access to resource inventories is the design goal of ScheduALL Connector, which is being demonstrated at IBC. This capability to connect, says ScheduALL, allows businesses to find the most cost-effective providers and ensure the best fit for the job at hand. The technology in ScheduALL Connector provides a platform for self-provisioned customer bookings, meaning


that broadcast and transmission companies can allow their customers to book inventory and resources directly, without the need for emails, phone calls or spreadsheets. Self-provisioning eliminates


error-prone manual processes, duplicate efforts and conflicts, according to the company, with ScheduALL Connector providing a centralised view of a global resource network for both the provider and the customer, increasing revenue through maximised utilisation. ScheduALL says that it has built trusted partnerships with the largest media businesses, and ScheduALL Connector unifies these companies in a


global network. The direct system-to-system connectivity provided by ScheduALL Connector delivers a global inventory, resulting in a comprehensive choice of providers, increased utilisation and maximised levels of project profitability. ScheduALL Connector offers resource providers the tools to connect with their customers and give them instant access to booking the resources they need. When a facility finds itself at maximum capacity, ScheduALL Connector can also locate alternate resources to provide what is needed, resulting in accelerated workflows. 1.D30


As well as showing its IP video platform HDMI Media Express, Alticast is also presenting its AltiPlex Server Cloud Solution which provides a complete services platform, including back office integration, metadata delivery, big data support and cloud services. A complete Cloud-based


Personal Video Recording system and an innovative Cloud-based User Interface system are key offerings of the platform, the company says, while Alticast’s Cloud UI application provides a thin client/server model for delivering the user experience to all devices in the home. This architecture is claimed to reduce demands on the STB CPU and memory by pre- processing the UI in the Cloud. A web-based console enables the delivery of


different UIs to different devices for user experience versatility and MSO testing and service. Alticast’s collaborative


development environment for RDK code integration is also being featured at IBC. It is a Cloud-based solution that enables system-on-a- chip (SoC) vendors, open software providers, multi- system operator (MSOs) and system integrators to use a single workflow and release structure for RDK code development. It is also providing demonstrations of its pre- integrated solutions, including a demonstration of end-to-end systems. These complete set top box software packages provide core AltiPlatform systems software, a customisable user interface and a variety of content security products. The demos include one based on the AltiView I user experience and another HbbTV design. 1.F36
