Howler Caraya

High Speed low cost media processing platform

Caraya provides solutions such as transcoding, encryption and signal analysis and can operate either as a stand-alone device, or in tandem with existing equipment taking on the burden of compute-intensive media processing.

It Makes Business sense
New Business Opportunities
The traditional expense of transcoding is no longer a barrier to growing a business. Cost-effective transcoding (including low bit rate codecs) allows you to broaden your service offering and reach a wider audience.

Preserve and Enhance Existing Investment
Offload compute-intensive signal processing tasks (like transcoding) to Caraya, thus freeing up existing infrastructure to do more.

Increased Capacity
High-performance architecture provides significantly more channel capacity and delivers the best price performance ratio currently available on the market.

High Reliability
Highly resilient configuration means no service interruption, even to live calls, in the unlikely event of hardware failure.

No External Management Servers
No need for expensive external management servers. Multiple Caraya™ servers combine to act as a unified pool of resources. Management of the cluster is de-centralised and distributed amongst the available servers, removing single points of failure

Scalable & Flexible
Caraya provides upgrades in capacity and functionality via simple software license keys. Buy exactly the number of transcoding channels you need, independent of the hardware they run on. Increase that number at any time, in sizes you want. Add other modules for extra functionality as and when you need them. Because Caraya provides massive capacity on a single server, upgrades can usually be made without the need for additional hardware.

Eco-Friendly
Low power, space & cooling requirements mean lower running costs and a smaller carbon footprint.
