At NAB2009 in Las Vegas, NV, IBM and its business partners will demonstrate how broadcasters are increasingly turning to IBM to respond quickly to changing media markets and to deliver exciting new entertainment experiences to consumers. Broadcasters worldwide rely on IBM's services and technology to enhance production quality and collaboration, and to gain business agility with intelligent workflows.
Demonstrations in the IBM booth will also emphasize ways broadcasters and media companies can reduce costs with efficient and scalable standards-based technologies. In an effort to move from a fragmented software environment -- which drains productivity and budgets -- to one based on common connectivity standards, IBM will lay the groundwork for new open standards-based interfaces for media services. It will also conduct a demo integrating cloud computing with IBM's Media Hub solution framework. Cloud computing has tremendous ramifications for the media industry -- to streamline processes, increase interoperability and reduce overall production and distribution costs.
