My Kaltura experience

Guyz, for the past 3 years, I have been indulging myself in media distribution and delivery platforms. Currently, working with one such customer who has 7 products under his belt and is on aquiring spree..

I would like to discuss the open source option for video delivery, that is Kaltura. KalturaCE is available for free and is an open source option for video distribution. Predominantly built over LAMP stack and has flex/flash components for the consumption layer.

What I found after installing on my Ubuntu is that this platform offers basic media management features like publisher management, content uploading, transcoding, managing encoding profiles, playlist management, player embedding, playlist embedding and so forth. There is no extensive, i would actually say, a good mechanism to create and categorize content the way many want it to be. Kaltura provides client library APIs in java, C#, PHP to enable existing solutions to go media distribution enabled. The platform comes with integration with CDNs like Akamai, Level 3, Limelight and has option of integrating with Red5 streaming server, an open source option for FMIS.
The platform can be installed on cloud and simply start using them. Its a great option to enable your existing webapp video enabled, more so gives an option to manage its assets in more closed environment.

Still exploring ...
Will post you as find some more ...
