Clint Heiden to Present on Internet Infrastructure and the Growth of Video
Herndon, VA – February 9, 2015 – EdgeConneX®, specializing in hosting solutions at the edge of the network, announces today that its Chief Commercial Officer, Clint Heiden, will present at the Video Services Forum (VSF) VidTrans15 Annual Technical Conference and Exposition, Content in Motion. The event takes place February 24-26, 2015 at the Marina del Rey Marriott in Marina del Rey, CA.
Mr. Heiden will present on the informational session “Can the Internet Keep Pace with Video Growth?”, on Thursday, February 26. The presentation will focus on how the Internet must evolve to make quality video available to every market on any device. Mr. Heiden will also explore how the next generation of video distribution infrastructure must be developed in parallel with investments in technology in order to achieve reliable video streaming and acceptable quality of service.
“While developments in technology are considered critical to the future of video streaming and OTT, the physical infrastructure that carries these technologies is often overlooked,” remarks Clint Heiden, EdgeConneX Chief Commercial Officer. “The Internet’s antiquated infrastructure can no longer effectively support our generation’s video and OTT demands. The presentation will educate attendees on how addressing both technology and physical infrastructure lowers latency while enabling the efficient, effective transmission of video and OTT.”
“We are excited to have one of our newest members of the VSF, EdgeConneX, participate in this year’s VidTrans15 conference. Their Edge model is incredibly relevant right now with the explosion of video and OTT applications being requested,” adds Bob Ruhl, VSF Operations Manager.
