We have released nanoStream Analytics 2.17. The new release introduces a new feature that is available for multiple widgets and grants access to additional breakdowns. With one click customers can retrieve more detailed data on the different displayed information: Part of these widgets are e.g. about usage, playout/ingest and maximum concurrent viewers. The newly added breakdowns pop up to display the following top ten measures for the selected parameters: IP, stream name, country or e.g. city. Another widget is the world map that shows usage as part of a geographical breakdown. It now can be set to show ranking countries for e.g. playout/ingest, buffering play ratio, latency, playtime average, usage, ABR playtime, ABR viewer, abr switches, quality of experience. The newly added breakdowns enable stream providers to better understand changes of latency, playing time or e.g. stream quality, fluctuations and their cause based on respective parameters. Further details can be found in the nanoStream Analytics documentation and nanoStrem Analytics Zoom Feature documentation.
For those customers who are looking for additional insights regarding the quality of their service, complete and end-to-end, from the ingest to playback, we are also offering our Premium Analytics Service. This collects additional metrics from our web clients, the nanoStream H5Live Player and nanoStream Webcaster.
The Premium Analytics requires a business upgrade – we would like to invite you to contact us for details at sales@nanocosmos.de.
