STREAM TO APPLE DEVICES

iOS-based devices such as the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch are a major focus for web publishers, content owners, and application developers, representing a large and hyperconnected target audience. The ability to deliver interactive and media-centric experiences to these devices is a critical part of any media delivery strategy.

EdgeCast is making this experience better than ever.

Whether streaming audio or video, live events, or sending secure, on-demand content with full encryption and authentication, your content is delivered fast to iOS4 devices anywhere in the world. The speed, global coverage, and intelligent routing of the EdgeCast network means an excellent user experience, minimizing the frustrations and interruptions that often plague mobile media delivery.

The EdgeCast network fully supports intelligent dynamic streaming, a technology built in to Apple devices. Intelligent dynamic stream selection lets an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch automatically switch between different bit rates depending on the device’s connection speed at that moment. This ability to switch bit rates dynamically, as network conditions change, means you can deliver users a clear and uninterrupted viewing experience, whether they're connecting through EDGE, 3G, or Wi-Fi.

To ensure that Apple device users have an optimal experience - free of interruptions relating to network congestion or long distances between viewers and content servers - our customers' Apple iOS streams are delivered over our fast, globally load-balanced network, and they're automatically served by the streaming server fastest for them.
