Cambridge, UK April 29, 2008 -- Velocix™ (www.velocix.com), provider of the world's leading Digital Asset Delivery Network, today announced the introduction of its Velocix Accelerator family of digital delivery services.
The Velocix Network is designed to enable content owners, studios, and broadcasters to deliver video and other large digital assets, such as software, games and audio over the web, with unprecedented performance, breakthrough economics and an asset delivery lifecycle management system that provides content owners the control, analytics and reporting they need to manage their asset libraries through the digital distribution chain.
"Our new Velocix Accelerator and Velocix Accelerator Pro services provide stepping stones for start-ups, entrepreneurs and emerging new media businesses that introduce them to the benefits and advantages of high performance global digital delivery services," said Phill Robinson, CEO at Velocix. "These entry level services remove barriers and put these emerging companies on an even footing with their larger and more established competitors."
Velocix Accelerator - The World's First FREE CDN
Velocix Accelerator (www.velocix.com/accelerator) is the world's first free Content Delivery Network (CDN) offering and includes a 500GB per month delivery allowance for global file download, video progressive streaming and website acceleration services.
Velocix Accelerator Pro - $1,000 per month
Velocix Accelerator Pro (www.velocix.com/acceleratorpro) is a packaged suite of digital delivery services that provides an expansion path for successful business ventures that exceed the traffic thresholds of the free Velocix Accelerator service, or need more sophisticated delivery services such as Flash Streaming or Hybrid-P2P download.
"As visitor numbers expand and our Velocix Accelerator customers see an increasing demand for their on-line digital services, Velocix Accelerator Pro provides them with a simple upgrade that includes more advanced delivery services for their growing and more sophisticated digital asset delivery requirements," said John Dillon, Chief Marketing Officer, Velocix.
Velocix Accelerator Pro service comes with a 1.5TB monthly traffic allowance and additional advanced delivery options. These include on-demand Video Streaming (in Flash or Windows Media formats), ground breaking "multi-source delivery" for optimized high performance delivery of large digital assets and P2P-assisted delivery options that will enable customers to squeeze significantly more from their monthly traffic threshold, as well as substantially extend scalability of their solution to a larger audience. Also included is full access to the Velocix Asset Control Portal for advanced digital asset management and reporting.
The globally deployed Velocix Digital Asset Delivery Network offers the most comprehensive suite of delivery services and options available on the market today. Velocix Accelerator and Velocix Accelerator Pro - the two new entry level services - sit alongside the existing advanced Velocix Video, Velocix Game and Velocix Software suites of digital delivery solutions.
