Content management and delivery specialist ipercast today announces that its video streaming services are now fully compatible with Microsoft’s new Silverlight 4 framework. ipercast is in the process of migrating to the new platform for two of its major clients, in order to offer them improved end user experience and higher quality technical performance. The platform is also compatible with PlayReady technology. ipercast already operates Europe’s largest Windows Media DRM platform, capable of delivering 20,000 licenses per minute per service from its Frankfurt office. The move to adapt its platform to Silverlight 4 capability strengthens ipercast’s European leadership in copyright management, and ensures its platform can be adapted to a wide range of digital entertainment content on any Internet enabled device.

They come to us to find the right solution to their business needs, so it is vital that we are using the most up-to-date technology in the services we provide. We have a longstanding relationship with Microsoft, and are convinced that our new Silverlight 4-compatible platform will provide our customers with the smoothest possible streaming experience and the most innovative solutions with which to retain their customers.” Brian Goldfarb, director of the developer platform group at Microsoft Corp comments: “Microsoft is pleased ipercast has invested early in supporting Silverlight and the next-generation application development platform. With the continued support of Silverlight, ipercast’s video delivery services help provide online viewers the best user experience with the highest quality.”
