Aurea Social Video Stream Kontiki integration

Overview

Many organizations who want to use Video Stream to truly make video “social” have already made substantial investments in video streaming infrastructure. One of the popular enterprise-class video storage and streaming technologies that NewsGator customers are using is Kontiki.

Kontiki’s peer-based file sharing mechanism is ideal for geographically disparate environments as it minimizes load on the WAN by streaming from a copy local to a region or office.

This guide describes how to enable Kontiki. Kontiki handles the encoding, storage and streaming mechanism for Video Stream.

For the end-user, the Video Stream experience is the same as using the Video Stream native option.

For the administrator, the Kontiki integration capability deploys as a SharePoint feature.

Compatibility

This integration supports Kontiki 8.2.
