Harmonic’s VOS™ virtualized software media processing platform and VOS-based Electra™ XVM virtualized media processor both received the “Best of Show” award from TV Technology magazine based on their innovation, feature set, cost efficiency, and performance. “We are thrilled to be awarded TV Technology’s highest honors at the NAB Show for our involvement in shaping the future of video production and delivery,” said Peter Alexander, chief marketing officer at Harmonic. “As video content providers and service providers look to increase operational flexibility while lowering operating costs, VOS and Electra XVM enable the smooth migration to software-defined, integrated media processing optimized for producing and delivering video content quickly and cost-effectively, with IT economics and amazing video quality.” TV Technology’s “Best of Show” awards program recognizes outstanding new products showcased at the NAB Show. Entries are judged by a panel of engineers and industry experts. Harmonic’s VOS and Electra XVM were chosen to receive the award from among hundreds of new products in competition. Harmonic’s VOS was selected as a winner for its potential to bring increased operational simplicity, flexibility, and efficiency to the media processing and delivery ecosystem.

Operating virtually in IT data center environments, VOS can scale up or down to accommodate peaks in demand based on capacity and functional requirements across all video services. VOS includes Harmonic’s PURE Compression Engine, providing ground-breaking video quality and bandwidth efficiency for SD, HD, and Ultra HD formats; MPEG-2, MPEG-4/AVC, and HEVC compression over CBR; VBR, and ABR streams. Electra XVM is Harmonic’s first product based on VOS. Electra XVM is an integrated package of VOS functionality, including the PURE Compression Engine, playout, advanced graphics, packaging, and delivery, and operates in data center environments on OpenStack or VMware vSphere environments for maximum operational flexibility. Virtual machine instances of Electra XVM can leverage data center capacity on demand according to the mix of codecs and formats used, from MPEG-2 SD to HEVC Ultra HD.
