Concurrent Patents Resilient Video Streaming

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Concurrent (NASDAQ:CCUR), a global leader in unified content delivery, video analytics, and real-time Linux® solutions, today announced it has been granted two new patents for its unique resilient video streaming technology. U.S. Patent numbers 8,943,218 and 8,972,600 describe how media servers can function collaboratively in order to create a self-healing content delivery architecture. Using the patented methods, video servers can rapidly detect fault conditions in a server array that could impact active video streams. Examples of fault conditions can include network issues, power outages, and hardware problems. Once a fault condition is detected, servers in the array instantly re-route active streams to other healthy servers in the same array in order to prevent interruption of the consumer's viewing session. Assuming there is sufficient capacity in the array to support the full stream load, the active streams continue to be delivered seamlessly.
