The solution provides turnkey channel management of digital linear feeds from Bitcentral's own FUEL platform or leading Free Ad-Supported TV (FAST) channel vendors.The Live Guide To-Go SDK and CMS suite were originally developed by Powr.tv, a companyrecently acquired by Bitcentral, and now form part of Bitcentral's suite of products for the next era of streaming.

Fusion Hybrid Storage Solution

Fusion modernizes the methodologies used to deliver the broadcast content services of its on-premise Oasis solution, including archive, asset management and sharing.

Fusion Hybrid Storage Solution (HSS) extends the capabilities of on-premise storage and gives increased scalability and federated access to content for distribution.
