Austin, TX(08 Nov 2011)
BuyDRM™, a pioneer in the commercial deployment of DRM technologies, announced today that the company will be conducting previews of the KeyOS: Cloud Edition service running on Amazon Web Services at Streaming Media West 2011. This preview will provide potential customers with a chance to see the technology in action and make product feature recommendations and pricing requests before the service goes live.
BuyDRM has developed a dynamic prototype of the KeyOS: Cloud Edition encryption service running in Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) which uses the Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) to trigger an encryption session of content stored in the Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). By deploying this service in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) platform, BuyDRM can support large scale media and entertainment deployments which use the full spectrum of the AWS offering including the Amazon CloudFront streaming and download features.
The KeyOS: Cloud Edition service supports the on-demand encryption of Microsoft’s Windows Media (ASF, WMA, WMV) and Smooth Streaming (ISMV, ISMA) formats utilizing the native codecs as well as the popular H.264 and AAC codecs. These file-level encryption technologies are both “Studio Approved” and supported on PC and Mac computers, connected TV’s, Sony Blu-Ray players, today’s leading gaming consoles and iOS and Android devices.
"The KeyOS: Cloud Edition service demonstrates how innovative, forward thinking companies like BuyDRM can leverage the power of AWS to provide greater value to their customers,” said Terry Wise, Director of Business Development at Amazon Web Services. “We are pleased to work with BuyDRM to provide secure, on-demand, pay as you go cloud services, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the media and entertainment market."
"AWS has developed a feature-rich computing platform to shape the future of digital media" said Christopher Levy, CEO and Founder, BuyDRM. "With KeyOS: Cloud Edition, BuyDRM will offer content security services powered by AWS which will provide today’s entertainment leadership with the critical technology they need to thrive and evolve" Levy added.
