From public web sites where millions can watch instant-on, high quality video to enterprise applications where thousands receive email with links to embedded webinars, Trusted Media's TrustCastTM system is there to provide your solution:
• TrustCast DNA is a complete architecture which provides for invisible, fully customizable content delivery, notification, and access.
• TrustCast RAIN (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Networks) topology allows Trusted Media to host TrustCast servers at unbeatable prices.
The TrustCast DNA system is comprised of three stages:
• Delivery — TrustCast opens and retains a seamless, transparent, rich media communications channel between you and your audience. The channel is both efficient and polite — download of your content will be almost invisible. Subscription models, with ongoing regular deliveries based on recipient properties, are fully supported.
• Notification — Use the methods you want to communicate with your recipients. If you run a web site, you can design your pages to update automatically based on the content (and ads) that have been delivered. If you communicate with your audience by email, TrustCast can coordinate with an email server to send messages with links to the delivered content. A customizable task bar icon can also alert a recipient that a delivery has occurred.
• Access — Web page content can play automatically, or can be hyperlinked to launch with a single click. In-page media players from Real, Microsoft, or Quicktime can be used. Email-referenced content can launch a media player or browser with a single click. Since content has already been delivered, viewers experience none of the delays associated with streaming. Your audience will be amazed!
Just as RAID (redundant arrays of inexpensive drives) can provide quality and reliability at previously unheard of prices, a RAIN network can allow the delivery of massive amounts of data cheaply and efficiently. The variables are:
• Audience Size — number of people exposed.
• Opt-In Rate — percentage of these recipients who choose to receive content.
• Delivery Schedule — frequency with which new content will be delivered.
• Content Size — three minutes of quality content is about 10MB.
The total amount of content — and the savings offered by a TrustCast architecture — can be staggering:
• With an audience size of two million, opt-in rates of 10%, and three 10MB deliveries a week, the content delivery load is close to 26TB per month. A price reduction of $.40/GB would save $10,400 per month.
• With an audience size of four million, opt-in rates of 20%, and three 10MB deliveries a day, the content delivery load is well over 700TB per month. At these levels, even a price reduction of $.10/GB would save $70,000 per month.
