Zixi, the industry leader for enabling dependable, live broadcast-quality video over any IP network, and provider of the award winning Software-Defined Video Platform (SDVP) announced that the company is building on its existing work with Amazon Web Services (AWS) by launching in AWS Marketplace. The SDVP and Zixi ZEN Master control plane are now available for procurement, with the incremental benefit of purchasing Zixi services through AWS Marketplace counting against AWS Enterprise Discount Program (EDP) commitments, supporting cost efficiencies, streamlining budgets and simplifying purchasing when provisioning Zixi’s market leading live video solutions with AWS.
