Tata Communications’ Content Delivery Network (CDN), powered by BitGravity, provides a scalable, reliable platform to outsource distribution of video, pictures, music, games, downloads, and multimedia applications over the Internet. Based on a Distributed Origin Architecture, the CDN is designed to deliver large files, videos, and downloads providing the highest performance and reliability in the industry. This translates to immediate access and the highest level of throughput of content for users. Videos play instantly and live video plays reliably, without buffering, at all times.

Existing CDN services, based on cached edge technology, are not designed for the imminent media challenges facing companies today. Tata Communications’ CDN offering, powered by BitGravity, is based on Distributed Origin Architecture, which allows even the most difficult of formats, such as High Definition video, to play uninterrupted and immediately on the platform.

With the Internet’s first and most advanced IPV6/IPvV4 network, the CDN service is tightly integrated with the Tata Communications’ Global IP Network that extends to 200 countries. Tata Communications’ CDN is also fully redundant and can handle large traffic spikes. The platform also includes LiveBroadcast™ the first carrier-grade, live video broadcasting solution for the Internet. Powered by BitGravity’s BitCast™ technology, LiveBroadcast transmits live, online video while minimizing latency and packet loss to create superior end user experience.
