Swarmify SmartVideo Solution allows users to optimize the power of these little but incredibly fast computers in their pockets and have amazingly high speed network access.

The solution offers a redesigned delivery that ensures users can enjoy reliability in the face of failure, resilience during changing network traffic, reasonable costs as users demand longer and higher resolutions, and ease of access and use.

Swarmify SmartVideo Fully Managed is another solution that is ideal for those who want to enjoy video delivery that is compatible with all browsers without the need to install any extra plugins. It provides a 100% up-time and delivery SLA, 85% reduction in re-buffers, and is less costly than traditional CDN’s. For customers who wish to maintain their own CDN relationships directly, Swarmify offers a version of its SmartVideo Solution where users can bring their own CDN.

Customers can still enjoy the benefits of Swarmify’s real-time continuous CDN switching functionality without having to switch delivery providers. Hive Analytics is an analytics tool that reports overall rates, by country and browser, in a real-time dashboard so baseline video interruption rates can be established and compared against other SmartVideo customers. In most players it takes just a few steps to deploy.

WordPress Acceleration is Swarmify’s simple-to-install and-configure WordPress plugin that powers image delivery for some of the busiest WordPress sites around. Between Hyperlocal geo-serving and lazy loading, images load swiftly and bandwidth is saved.
