Video technology provider Accedo has announced a new collaboration with Amazon Web Services, Brightcove and New Relic to support its dedicated OTT managed service that it said is designed to reduce complexity and risk for OTT service providers.
According to Accedo, AWS, Brightcove and New Relic have completed a detailed vetting process to ensure alignment with its managed service in aspects such as technology, go-to-market strategy, and commercials. Companies that have gone through this process are entered into Accedo’s managed service partner hub, granting them a preferred status for end-to-end client engagements managed by Accedo.

Martin Sebelius, CEO, Accedo Video Solutions, said: “Video providers are operating in an increasingly complex environment, and delivering a successful OTT service is more challenging than ever. As a managed service business partner, Accedo works closely with its customers to address that challenge embracing responsibility and accountability for bringing the optimal technology components together. We are delighted that our longstanding collaborators, AWS, Brightcove and New Relic have taken up the baton, and look forward to working with them and other partners to drive profitable growth for our clients.”
