VMp Broadcast Solution

Deliver live video

Make your content safe and available

Streamline and automate production processes. Deliver Video on Demand capabilities for any user. Communicate to large, dispersed audiences. ViewCast Media Platform (VMp™) lets you manage and deliver content to consumers through a digital or IP-based infrastructure.

Integrate processes and streamline workflows

Broadcast organizations are finding it difficult to retrofit their existing production processes in order to deliver content over the Internet. To stay competitive, organizations must enable their existing technology and workflows to support this new paradigm. But with vast amounts of physical inventory deteriorating with age and a production process that is often proprietary, manual and inefficient for IPdelivery, this transition can seem overwhelming.

Stay competitive with relevant content

The transition from traditional broadcast to IP/consumer-based broadcast requires sophisticated content management. VMp, using IBM Enterprise Content Manager (ECM) infrastructure, allows your organization to centrally
manage digital content and deliver it to other applications and organizations systematically, to allow the entire value chain to interact and collaborate in a secure environment.

Store, search and manage content in the digital enterprise

  systems lowering your total cost of ownership.
