Cloud Force Digital Media has joined the Reference Design Kit (RDK) community and also announced a partnership with TO THE NEW. Cloud Force has licensed the RDK technology to build, distribute and monetize Internet applications for operators, global programmers, service providers and advertisers seeking to use the RDK software stack.
The RDK is a pre-integrated software bundle that provides a common framework for powering customer-premises equipment (CPE) from video service providers, including set-top boxes, gateways, and converged devices.
Separately, with the addition TO THE NEW, Cloud Force adds a partner with expertise in consolidating numerous different web properties into a single centralized web platform. This allows video service providers to reach market faster with an effective website and provide an engaging and contextual experience.
"Cloud Force and the RDK community are both focused on delivering next-generation interactive video services. In addition, by joining forces with TO THE NEW, Cloud Force will be able to deliver transformative apps that are a necessary part of this evolution," said E.J. Klein, Cloud Force CEO and founder.
