Multicast

Combining traditional multicast with Smooth Streaming, Smooth Multicast provides best-quality end user experiences with low network overhead (coming soon!).

Convert with Ease

When you need to convert full media libraries or a steady flow of incoming files, let Transform Manager automate the job submission, scheduling, management, media transcoding, and encryption.

Analytics

Measure and then monetize your IIS-delivered media experiences with customizable client and server data, and share that in real-time with a third-party analytics service, using Advanced Logging.

Scale to the Edge

End users have a better experience when your Web and media content is close to them, so use Application Request Routing on your edge servers to provide proxying and disk-based edge caching.

Intelligent Progressive Downloads

Bit Rate Throttling increases scalability for progressive downloads while reducing bandwidth costs by intelligently detecting and metering media files.
