ANEVIA STRENGTHENS APAC PRESENCE WITH DEPLOYMENT FOR VTC

Anevia, a leading provider of OTT and IPTV software solutions, is helping
Vietnam Television Corporation (VTC) to launch an over-the-top (OTT) service
for subscribers following growing demand for greater viewing flexibility.
Launched at the end of April, VTC Now is available on Apple and Google market
places.

The new TV service, is using Anevia's cloud DVR solution, NEA-DVR with EDS, a
hyper- convergent storage system specifically designed for video. The
Hanoi-based broadcaster is the first in APAC region to implement the EDS
solution. This win confirms Anevia's growing operations in the region.

NEA- DVR provides viewers with unlimited recording on every screen, with no
needs in buying a set top box. It also reduces operational costs through its
Infinite Buffer which streamlines asset and storage management. It only keeps
content that viewers have effectively recorded, so optimizing storage and
gaining operators four times more capacity in its infrastructure.

Anevia's EDS system simplifies the integration between streaming and storage by
embedding storage on servers. This cuts considerably the number of physical
rack units needed - a big consideration in a growing broadcast facility.

Throughout the project, Anevia has worked closely with local partner BMTS Media
Technology and with Brightcove, a US-based video cloud provider, to offer VTC a
mixed cloud-based service platform with an on-premise storage platform for
streaming.

"Our priority at VTC is to offer the best experience to our subscribers and
today this includes providing our new OTT service. We have been very impressed
with the way the Anevia solution enables us to do this while giving us the
flexibility to offer compelling new pricing models," said Nguyen Ngoc Tuan, VTC
Now project manager.

"We are delighted to make this contribution to VTC's new OTT project and to
work with Brightcove on the integration of NEA-DVR and EDS within the wider
system. A few years ago, we made the strategic decision to address the APAC
market and this latest prestigious win further builds our momentum in the
region," adds Grégory Samson, executive VP of worldwide sales Telco & Media,
Anevia.
