Hostway?s CDN Chosen by CTAM to Deliver Fast-Loading Video Clips
2008-11-09
Hostway?s Edge Caching content delivery network will provide access to video
clips from CTAM Summit 08.
Chicago, Illinois, November 7, 2008 ? Hostway Corporation, the global Web
services leader, was chosen by the Cable and Telecommunications Association for
Marketing (CTAM) to host video clips of the association's Summit 08, held
November 9-11 in Boston. Hostway will deliver these clips using its
patent-pending content delivery network (CDN), ?Edge Caching.?
?Hostway is proud to have been selected by CTAM as their CDN solution provider,?
said John Lee, senior vice president for Hostway. ?Our Edge Caching service
takes advantage of Hostway?s worldwide network of data centers to deliver
content over the Internet without the long wait times typically associated with
online video."
Edge Caching is a system of servers deployed across four continents that operate
together to deliver content via the Internet. When a visitor downloads a CTAM
Summit video clip, Edge Caching will select the best servers in terms of
proximity and traffic load and rapidly deliver the video to the end-user from
those servers. With multiple servers working toward the same goal, Edge Caching
drastically reduces the amount of time it takes to deliver the video clips.
?With Hostway?s help, CTAM will be able to share the general session programs
from Summit 08 with all CTAM members regardless of whether they can attend in
person,? stated Seth Morrison, senior vice president and general manager of
corporate initiatives for CTAM. ?We were especially pleased to be able to
partner with Hostway, as they have been actively involved with CTAM since 2006.?
CTAM Summit 08 will examine how consumer marketers, product developers and
managers, and affiliate sales executives can capitalize on fast-changing
technology and improve the consumer experience in television, Internet and
phone.
Hostway will also have a booth at Summit 08 to present Hostway?s wholesale Web
services. This integrated platform enables cable and telecom providers to offer
a comprehensive menu of privately labeled services, including Web hosting,
advanced email, ecommerce, online backup and storage, hosted Microsoft Exchange,
Microsoft SharePoint, Fax over Email and Web site design.
