Mirror Image Announces Upgrade to Content Delivery Network.
2006-05-23, HostMan.biz As households and businesses increasingly rely on streaming audio and video content, Mirror Image Internet today announced that a major upgrade to its patented global Content Access Point network is underway. This upgrade will focus on the Company's global architecture and include enhanced support for Windows Media and Macromedia Flash streaming services, as well as increased storage capacity for other content-based services. With these improvements in place, Mirror Image expects its streaming capacity to increase by more than 600 percent once the project is complete. To broaden and strengthen Mirror Image's global footprint, new servers have been added on the East coast, West coast and in Europe. "We've seen a huge rise this year in market demand for content delivery networks to deliver streaming media reliably," said John O'Keefe, senior analyst for Current Analysis. "Mirror Image's network upgrade comes at the perfect time to position the Company to expertly deliver whatever streaming media formats its clients choose, and benefit from this new end user surge." Mirror Image, a Windows Media 9 Series Certified Hosting Provider, will provide expanded support for Windows Media content to meet the ever-increasing demand for additional capacity. Already complete is extended support for Flash Media Server 2, another highly popular streaming format, as well as support for RealPlayer and Quicktime. Streaming traffic on Mirror Image's network for Q1 2006 increased 120 percent over Q1 in 2005 as advertisers, entertainment providers, e-tailers and media companies offer more streaming content to their users. "Our company is growing fast, with more users demanding more video in a variety of formats," said Jonathan Widro, director of Internet operations for 4Kids.tv, a global provider of children's entertainment. "Mirror Image takes its streaming services seriously, and is anticipating our future streaming needs with this network upgrade project. It's unusual to have a vendor partner so committed to our company's present and future success, and this is why we continue our relationship with Mirror Image." In addition to the expanded streaming and storage capacity and improved network performance, Mirror Image continues to provide the stellar customer service, SLA guarantees and top-notch reporting for which it has become known. "Streaming media is booming, and Mirror Image continually invests in its already-solid network so customers don't have to," said Gustav Vik, president and CEO of Mirror Image. "This upgrade ensures better performance that will enable us to meet the needs of our existing customers as they grow, and of newer, larger customers as they select Mirror Image for their content delivery needs." |
