KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 9 -- Cisco, Qwilt and Digital Alpha (DA) are together disrupting the commercial Content Delivery Network (CDN) market with a new as-a-service offering based on Open Caching, with BT as the flagship customer.

According to a statement, BT is the UK’s leading telecommunications and network provider.

Open Caching, an open architecture developed and endorsed by the Streaming Video Alliance, offers a platform that federates content delivery infrastructure deployed deep inside service provider networks, into a global CDN with open APIs for content publishers. 

It is designed to help service providers easily deploy an edge CDN footprint, offering them more control over content flows.

It also caters to the needs of global and regional content providers for more capacity, consistency in content delivery and performance assurance.

Featuring DA as the investing partner providing a unique funding solution, this partnership combines Qwilt’s innovative content delivery platform based on Open Caching, with Cisco’s edge compute and networking infrastructure to deliver the solution as-a-service to service providers of all sizes globally.

BT in partnership with Qwilt, Cisco and DA has deployed this solution to add multiple terabits per second of capacity and provide cost-effective, high-quality streaming video to meet its growing demand in 2020 and beyond.
