Can I bring my own CDN or transcoding service and use it with the Lightcast OVP, Media Cloud Distribution System and App Framework?

Lightcast.com is a multi-platform OVP and end-to-end OTT provider with integrated App Framework. In order to provide the highest level of service, support, uptime, redundancies and cost-efficiency, Lightcast uses its fully integrated, verified and proven transcoding and CDN partners. 

The transcoding process is fully integrated and automated, and cannot be disconnected from the automation workflow. 

Likewise, CDN delivery is fully automated, with CDN-dependent services fully integrated in the Media Cloud such cloud-recording of live-streams, analytics services, and our cost-efficient, proprietary DRM and token security. 

Therefore the use of Lightcast’s fully integrated CDN delivery is necessary in order to utilize the Lightcast OVP, Media Cloud and App Framework.
