Singapore ISP Throws on a Qwilt

MyRepublic, an Internet service provider in Singapore and New Zealand, has chosen Qwilt's open caching solution to help boost network capacity and improve the quality of over-the-top (OTT) video service delivery. Over the next 12 months, MyRepublic plans to use Qwilt's solution to provide premium service and to expand into other markets in Southeast Asia.

Qwilt's solution is intended to analyze traffic across operator networks in real time to identify trending and popular content, and then cache and deliver it locally at the subscriber edge. It's designed to remove the need for duplicate streams from origin sites or content delivery networks (CDNs) across operator networks, for faster delivery time and reduced network congestion.
