Haivision acquires WebRTC video platform Teltoo

Haivision has bought peer-to-peer (P2P) and WebRTC enabled real-time video delivery platform Teltoo.

Madrid-based Teltoo is focussed on scalable and sustainable internet delivery. The platform leverages WebRTC and advanced real-time network analytics to optimise video delivery for operators, media companies and enterprises.

It aims to significantly reduce the reliance on CDN distribution to individual players, to eliminate buffering and deliver higher quality to each viewer. Haivision said it will integrate the Teltoo platform across its product portfolio.
