Abacast technology delivers top efficiency to Future Streams Network

Abacast, a world leader in Hybrid Peer to Peer (P2P) Technologies and Services, released data today that Abacast’s Hybrid P2P Technology was successfully deployed to Future Streams Networks.  The remarkable results were 95% efficiencies with 130,000 daily users and 35,000 concurrent users.

Revenue growth in the South Korean rich media market is forecasted to increase over 20 times in the next year; Future Streams needed a live solution that would have the ability to meet the growing demand while maintaining the consumer experience. SBS, South Korea's 3rd largest media company, is running trials through FutureStream Networks that employs the Abacast Live Hybrid Peer-to-Peer technology. Abacast's Hybrid P2P Technology is consistently delivering a high quality live video and audio stream to the growing South Korean streaming market.

"We are excited about our relationship with Futures Streams Network," said Mike King President of Abacast. "This represents the culmination of extensive development and planning. The fact that we can simultaneously achieve up to 95% efficiencies in content distribution with no change to their end-user experience is fantastic and a testament to Abacast’s solution.”

"Competitive pricing and a technological advantage are the key success factors for a company like us. The South Korean market is emerging as a very robust market for us.  Our streams demonstrate outstanding quality and network efficiency all thanks to Abacast.  We are happy to be a part of the Abacast network and want to continue to develop this relationship as we continue to grow. The best stream comes from our interest in consistently developing and utilizing the best technology and we believe Abacast’s technology fits that definition," said Sun Jin Lee, CEO of Future Streams Network
