Nokia and Sky enhance on-demand video services in the UK

Nokia and Sky have teamed up in a bid to enhance Sky's high-speed video and data services for Sky's customers in the UK. This means that Nokia's Velocix Content Network (CDN) has been deployed by Sky.

Sky's expansion of on-demand premium video content is creating unprecedented growth in customer traffic. This increasingly challenges delivery resources and operational costs across the company's entertainment and communications service networks.

In the alliance, Nokia is providing its Velocix Managed Service expertise - via its CDN Network Operations Center - to assure faster time-to-market for Sky, which will gain fuller control of design, implementation, and operation. The new solution provides better visibility for traffic demands and flows, ensuring greater predictability of performance and network usage compared to its current CDN service.
