Instituto Cervantes Uses Velocix's Digital Delivery Services

Velocix, provider of the Digital Asset Delivery Network, has announced that Instituto Cervantes is using its digital delivery services to provide High Definition online video to its audiences around the globe. Instituto Cervantes is the largest organisation in the world responsible for promoting the study and teaching of Spanish language and culture.
With Velocix, Instituto Cervantes is able to expand the reach of its global network of more than sixty branches. Additionally, the Institute recently launched an online TV service - delivered by Velocix - that provides a new focal point for its Internet offering.
Ramon Tijeras Cozar, Director for Cervantes Virtual Audiovisual Centre at Instituto Cervantes, said: "We previously used a local ASP, but found the service was not scalable enough for our means and couldn't handle the enhanced functionality we needed to take the Instituto into the modern, Web 2.0 world, with high definition video in MPEG-4 format. With Velocix however, we have the flexibility to offer a variety of on-demand tutorials and seminars worldwide, as we look to increase our activity in spreading Spanish culture and language to new regions."
Phill Robinson, CEO of Velocix, said: "We're delighted to be working with Instituto Cervantes, to accelerate delivery of their HD quality video services globally. Velocix is the enabler that is allowing them to deliver on their innovative and ambitious online plans as they look to further expand their internet video initiatives."
Velocix offers the broadest and most innovative range of digital delivery services available today. The Velocix network provides an internet fast lane for delivery of large digital assets like video, music software and games. This means that high quality streamed video plays uninterrupted from start to finish and file downloads complete without failure in a fraction of the time.
