Overview
Irdeto Control is a proven and trusted multi-DRM and content usage management solution at the center of OTT content delivery activities. Naturally, it supports the leading DRMs (Microsoft PlayReady, Google Widevine, Apple FairPlay Streaming) as well as a variety of monetization models (subscription, transaction (own or rental), freemium, ad-funded). Most importantly, it addresses the most current key concerns of service providers – reliability, scalability, simplicity, and a customer-driven innovation roadmap. Over 20 of the leading OTT video providers worldwide put their trust in Irdeto, allowing us to issue billions of licenses per month.
Irdeto Control is offered either as a fully managed service, hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), or as a licensed software. Operators who license Irdeto Control as a managed service can enjoy gold standard reliability (capable of 5 9s SLA) and high-quality support from day one. The highly scalable Irdeto Control infrastructure also prevents OTT solutions from falling victim to their own success: suffering license-issuing outages just as usage takes off. Nowhere is this reliability and scalability more critical than for premium live content. The peak viewing associated with these events requires infrastructure that can handle hundreds of thousands of license requests per second. Autoscaling in the AWS infrastructure ensures Irdeto Control copes effortlessly with maximum demand.
Irdeto Control’s Concurrent Stream Management feature leverages DRM license renewal mechanism to forestall the spread of credentials out of a household. Together with other advanced business policy features, it enables operators to offer their customers various subscription models, drives higher revenues, and safeguards customers against unwanted credentials sharing.
Irdeto Control issued an astonishing 3.4 billion licenses in October 2021, an increase of 162% since June 2020, when the company issued 1.3 billion licenses.
