Telenor Partners AWS to Bolster Streaming Services in the Nordics

In This Article:

Telenor ASA TELNY recently collaborated with Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) to expedite its transition to cloud-based TV streaming services. Through this initiative, TELNY will leverage AWS' cutting-edge technologies to create a cloud-native, comprehensive streaming platform to enhance the streaming experience for millions of customers across Norway, Sweden and Finland. With a focus on live-TV, Catch Up, Start Over, Network Personal Video Recorder (“PVR”) and Video on Demand (“VOD”), Telenor is set to reshape the landscape of TV and entertainment services in the region.

The alliance is built on Telenor’s existing VOD service, which already utilizes the AWS cloud. The new platform will further expand Telenor’s capabilities, enabling it to meet the growing demand for high-quality streaming services. The company will implement a Secure Media Cloud Platform backed by AWS. The platform will feature Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery/Deployment environments, allowing for rapid and scalable application onboarding.

AWS Professional Services will play a crucial role in facilitating the implementation of Telenor’s cloud-native platform. By leveraging proven automation frameworks, AWS will aid Telenor in enhancing operational efficiency and ensuring alignment with Telenor’s Defendable Architecture. Telenor will harness Amazon S3, Amazon EC2, and AWS Direct Connect to design scalable and cost-effective video streaming solutions, offering petabyte-scale storage and high-speed 100 Gbps connections to its networks.
