Oversi Wins Additional Principal ISP Operator Project – VTR Chile

VTR selects Oversi caching and content delivery platform to enhance subscribers’ Internet video experience

Petach Tikva, Israel, March 9th, 2009: Oversi, a pioneer of over-the-top (OTT) caching and delivery solutions, today announced that Chile’s largest cable communications company, VTR Global Com S.A., has selected Oversi’s caching and content delivery platform.

Hernan Benavides, Engineering Manager, VTR Chile, said: “We are totally committed to providing the best possible Internet service for our customers. Oversi’s platform enables us to fulfill this commitment, speeding up download times and vastly improving users’ quality of experience. OverCache also helps us to save on OPEX and CAPEX, crucial in this global financial climate.”

OverCache MSP (multi-service platform) offers a “one-stop-shop” caching and acceleration solution for online media content delivery, which is optimized for large networks. OverCache MSP enables VTR to offer its customers a superior Internet experience for both video and peer-to-peer applications. At the same time, OverCache improves the efficiency and performance of VTR’s network and generates bandwidth savings.

With OverCache, VTR’s subscribers benefit from a much faster download time. Internet video clips are downloaded within seconds rather than minutes. Subscribers can skip forward or backwards quickly to any point in their chosen video clip, with no risk of the video stopping halfway through.

David Tolub, President and CEO, Oversi, said, “We are delighted to have received this milestone project with Chile’s top ISP and technology leader. This deal is another important ISP operator win for Oversi, symbolizing a vote of confidence in our technology and products. VTR has built a reputation for superior customer service, upgrading their Internet service to customers on a frequent basis. The Oversi platform will help them to secure their competitive leadership in the marketplace.”
