Conestoga College Launches 24/7 Digital Television Channel with Insys VT

August 29, 2024 – Poznań, Poland: Conestoga College, a leader in polytechnic education located in Ontario, Canada, has successfully launched CCDTV – Conestoga College Digital Television, its official broadcasting channel. This launch was powered by Cloud Video Kit, a comprehensive solution for video processing, management, and distribution from Insys Video Technologies. CCDTV serves as the gateway to Conestoga’s digital content, dedicated to delivering a 24/7 broadcast of engaging programs, insightful student features, and informational shows.

Previously, Conestoga College used Livestream to highlight its educational programs and attract new students. However, as the popularity of their service increased, the college faced challenges with scalability and the desire to launch a 24/7 live channel accessible both online and on-campus TVs. The migration to Cloud Video Kit resolved these issues by providing a modular video toolkit capable of handling increased demands. This new solution not only streams live broadcasts through a custom video player on their website and on-campus TVs but also offers comprehensive analytics to monitor viewership data such as viewer behavior, devices, or locations. Now, Conestoga College simply transmits the signal, and Insys VT handles the rest—processing and streaming it live to CCDTV.

“We were incredibly pleased with our first event on CCDTV, which reached over 150,000 viewers globally,” said Bruno Cortez Sibella, Events and Media Production Manager at Conestoga College. “Insys VT provided us with a seamless streaming experience that was crucial to our success. We are looking forward to expanding our channel and continuing to offer high-quality digital content with their reliable support.”

“Seeing CCDTV not only launch but also successfully engage such a large audience right from the start has been incredibly rewarding,” said Dawid Górniak, Product Manager at Insys Video Technologies. “By leveraging Amazon CloudFront CDN, Conestoga College can easily scale and manage its 24/7 live channel as demand grows. I’m excited to see our presence expanding in Canada with yet another successful deployment.”
