Zixi, the industry leader for enabling dependable, live broadcast-quality video over any IP network, and provider of the award-winning Software-Defined Video Platform (SDVP) today announced a partnership with Ant Media, and integration with Ant Media Server (AMS), ready-to-use, scalable real-time video streaming solutions for live video streaming, deployed easily and quickly on-premises or on public cloud networks. AMS helps enterprises such as ed-tech, gaming, e-auction services, broadcasting TV stations, security or surveillance companies, and mobile app developers who require live video streaming infrastructure to build live video conferencing, webinar, or mass broadcast and monitoring application solutions.

AMS is a streaming engine that can ingest high-performance Zixi-enabled live sources and provide adaptive, ultra-low latency streaming by using WebRTC technology with sub .5 seconds latency. Highly scalable both horizontally and vertically, easily growing the number of publishers and viewers with auto-scale cluster. AMS supports millions of viewers and streams, and in addition to leveraging Zixi sources, users can also publish AMS streams out to the SDVP unlocking powerful workflows including advanced GPU accelerated live transcoding, Zixi patent pending sequenced hitless failover, connection bonding over disparate networks, purpose-built live operations dashboards, enhanced visualization and centralized management of live channels. Ultra-Low Latency real-time streaming takes Zixi protected streams and delivers via a scaled WebRTC network with a full WebRTC stack, including SFU, MCU, and Data Channel for global delivery at scale.

“With integrated Zixi Protocol support, Ant Media Servers have access to the industry-leading performance, efficiency, security, and reliability that the SDVP enables”, said Ahmet Oguz Mermerkaya CEO/Cofounder, Ant Media. ” By leveraging the combined AMS and SDVP solution, our common customers have access to high-performance, scalable real-time video distribution.”
