CommScope’s Manifest Delivery Controller (MDC) allows service providers to deliver advanced personalization services and manages the user experience as they transition between services. These services help create a profitable video service by creating new revenue opportunities, reducing costs and reducing customer churn. Some of these services include:

• Targeted Advertising
• Alternate Content and Blackouts
• Emergency alerts
• CDN Steering
• Personal Channels
• 带宽优化
• The flexibility to create new services as needed

Running at the heart of the streaming ecosystem, the MDC has perhaps the most complete view of the entire system and can provide deep insight into both system performance and overall health. MDC provides visibility into important metrics such as:

• Success rate and errors for client requests
• Success rate and errors for interactions with third party systems such as the Ad Decision Server
• CDN and Origin latency and any errors fetching content and Manifests
• Performance of ad request processing
• Rogue requests that may represent a security issue
• Shifts between bit rates throughout the streaming session

Due to its role as the manager of the manifest and its ability to implement workflows that adjust for differences in content, message formats, parameters and other variables, MDC can greatly ease the integration of the streaming ecosystem and the addition of new components.
