Innovative rich media applications are coming to market at a tremendous pace and service providers are demanding ever shorter development cycles. Developers are responding to this demand for new applications by evolving their business models to focus on application development and solution integration, rather than platform development and hardware integration. Underlying media processing solutions, previously built in-house, are being replaced by commercial off-the-shelf media servers. Current first-generation media server offerings, however, do not address key requirements, such as supporting a broad range of media types and networks and the ability to support legacy protocols.
In response to these market needs, NMS is offering the Vision family of media servers, a comprehensive product line designed to help developers rapidly develop and deploy converged multimedia applications. Leveraging proven NMS components, Vision media servers are built in a layered architecture that is configurable, adaptable, and based on open standards. Vision delivers a complete family of sophisticated solutions.
