Etere delivers a seamless integration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) across the station's end-to-end workflows including MAM, scheduling, playout, ad insertion and archive.

Going beyond a traditional playout, Etere leads the change with a new integrative cloud playout system for US-based Asian American television network, Crossings TV. In today's media and entertainment industry, hyperconnectivity has taken on a whole new meaning and Etere is able to deliver a highly adaptable system to meet the station's evolving needs as well as to lay a path for the future. Etere streams a 24/7 content feed re-distributed in multiple languages, across 7 regions in United States for the Asian American markets. The workflows managed by Etere includes the dynamic insertion of commercials to drive new content monetization opportunities across the different markets.

Crossings TV taps on Etere Ecosystem to manage their complete content distribution and migration to cloud services.
