APIS Hive software from dB Broadcast is designed to streamline the complete lifecycle of modern broadcast IP system architectures. It can manage and disseminate configuration data to multiple end points in large-scale ST 2110 deployments, and builds on dB’s expertise in IP systems integration.
Mike Bryan, Technology Director, dB Broadcast, said: “APIS Hive is invaluable for those seeking to reduce the need for manual data entry with improved data accuracy and maintainability. It reduces recovery time from equipment failures or outage, and so instils confidence in overall system configuration. APIS Hive helps achieve the vision of flexible,composable, scalable and maintainable OP facilities.”
Providing a unified and integrated workflow, APIS Hive addresses some of the challenges posed by the transition to AVoIP facilities, which sometimes lack the flexibility, agility and reusability benefits that IT-centric facilities are meant to deliver. It enables smoother design, implementation and support of broadcast systems, ensuring a seamless, dependable experience throughout the configuration process. It regards everything as data and uses a high degree of automation. Security is integral, using modules and layers in place of unwieldy monolithic approaches. It should improve visibility into the intricacies of IP infrastructure and configuration, including contextual relationships.
