LTN and Skyline platform DataMiner integrate to enhance...

LTN and Skyline Communications announce a new collaboration to drive enhanced broadcast monitoring and control for Tier 1 media, sports, entertainment, and technology companies. The partnership integrates Skyline's open monitoring and data orchestration platform, DataMiner, with LTN's interoperable ecosystem of IP video distribution technologies, underpinned by the fully managed, multicast-enabled IP-based transmission solution, LTN Wave. LTN will demonstrate the new integration for the first time at its stand #5.A76 at IBC2024 (The RAI, Amsterdam, September 13-16).

Media companies are under growing pressure to create, monetize and deliver multiple versions of high-value content for diverse platforms and geographies at an unprecedented scale. While many major media organizations are rapidly moving toward more scalable and flexible IP video distribution models, technology and operations leaders require streamlined, data-driven monitoring and control solutions to unify complex distribution workflows across multiple third-party hardware solutions and vendor ecosystems. The deft new integration provides LTN and Skyline's joint customers with greater visibility and control over their content and data across every step of the content value chain, empowering seamless global video distribution across hybrid environments including traditional broadcast, digital, OTT and FAST platforms.

Integrating with DataMiner is a fundamental part of our strategy to provide open, interoperable monitoring and control of LTN services - via the LTN Portal or within third party systems already deployed - for customers with seamless visibility, said Rick Young, LTN SVP, Head of Global Products. Tier 1 media companies need deeper insight across global content creation, acquisition, monetization, and distribution workflows, and our new partnership provides that holistic visibility in an intuitive, customer-centric way. It's a win-win-win we're simplifying monitoring and control across complex ecosystems for customers while driving closer client relationships for both our organizations. Together, we serve some of the biggest brands in media and entertainment, and we're excited to deepen our joint commitment to customer success.

The technical integration provides customers with powerful and versatile data acquisition and control layers, empowering media companies and content providers to access and manage new data sources quickly and efficiently via on-premise, cloud, or hybrid setups. Alongside deeper performance visibility across LTN's industry-leading global multicast IP network, customers can also use DataMiner for distribution management, including service switching, routing, or blackout and rights management. This easy-to-use monitoring and control layer drives a range of operational and cost efficiencies while enabling media businesses to expand their audiences and harness the full customization and versioning capabilities of intelligent IP video distribution solutions, like LTN Wave.

"Skyline Communications and LTN share the same vision when it comes to ensuring customers have the clarity, flexibility, and data-backed insight needed to navigate growing complexities in a multi-platform media landscape, said Thomas Gunkel at Skyline Communications. "DataMiner champions agile, user-friendly broadcast monitoring and control ecosystems that make it easier to gain a competitive edge and bring the best live experiences to viewers in the digital age.

The partnership underlines LTN's commitment to providing customers with greater visibility and control over their content and data workflows via intelligent IP video distribution. LTN Wave is the industry's only fully monitored and managed global IP video distribution network backed by LTN's secure, proprietary global IP network architecture that delivers 99.999% reliability and
