NanoTech Entertainment, a technology company focused on all aspects of the entertainment industry, has expanded its online infrastructure as it prepares to release of its newest 4K UltraHD streaming services.
The company today reported that it has extended its multi-year contract with Hurricane Electric for use of its datacenter in Fremont, Calif. NTEK has expanded its lease, tripling its footprint for its state-of-the art servers and enabling the company to keep pace with its growing video library and storage demands.
“This expansion allows us to support over 50,000 hours of video content. Given our continued expansion of HD, Over the Top, Video on Demand channels, combined with our new 4K UltraHD content, we need to be prepared for the increased demand on our infrastructure,” Jeffrey A. Foley, NTEK CEO stated in the press release.
Foley praised Hurricane Electric as a complementary partner and noted its position as the leading IPv6 native Internet Backbone backed by a strong facility and support staff.
“Given our exponential growth, and the amount of data that we will be streaming as we move from HD to 4K UltraHD, we require a solid basis for our technology. It is very important to have selected the best technology partners in this space as we migrate our global network to the IPV6 backbone,” he stated.
Hurricane Electric is the most dominant Autonomous System (AS) in the global IPv6 transit topology, according to University of California research presented at the International Measurement Conference (IMC) in November of 2012. The company employs resilient fiber-optic topology and has at least four redundant paths crossing North America, two separate paths between the U.S. and Europe in addition to rings in Europe and Asia. Hurricane Electric first deployed IPv6 in 2001, and now offers IPv6 as a core service.
“Our early investment in IPv6 is paying off not only for Hurricane Electric, but also for our customers around the world,” said Mike Leber, president of Hurricane Electric. “Given the depletion of the IPv4 address space, we expect continued strong growth in demand for IPv6 connectivity and services.”
