West Announces New Studio Integration Partners Expanding eCDN Options


OMAHA, Neb., March 19, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- West Corporation (“West” or the “Company”), a global leader in technology-enabled services, announced today that enterprise customers using West’s Studio can now select from a range of content delivery network partners for secure and reliable high-quality streaming. Along with Studio’s native Amplify eCDN offering, customers may choose from Hive, Kollective, or Ramp eCDN solutions to best fit within their technology ecosystem.

Enterprise Content Delivery Networks (“eCDNs”) alleviate the stress on a company’s bandwidth by supporting the network within the firewall, while offering the same secure benefits paired with the best viewing experience.
