Atlanta (Feb. 27, 2010) – iVision, Inc. was selected to help build a set of high-end infrastructure to support live Silverlight video streaming for the Vancouver Olympics in February 2010. The system captured all video content for the Olympics that was broadcast real time to the public. iVision, Inc., one of the nation's fastest growing private technology firms, provided the monitoring and management tools necessary to ensure the overall health of the streaming video. To support the entire build and deliver online video for the Vancouver Olympics, iVision utilized Microsoft System Center Operations Manager 2007 R2 (SCOM) to provide the requisite monitoring telemetry to ensure a smooth real time broadcast. iVision additionally developed a customized set of tools to help monitor the health of the video streams and the supporting servers. With extremely high video and processing it was critical that the system was configured and tuned to handle these massive requirements and avoid any server issues that could disrupt the streaming video.
