Encoding.com is the World's Largest and Now Fastest Encoding Service
Encoding.com's Instant Encoding(TM) makes on-premise encoding solutions obsolete
SAN FRANCISCO, April 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Encoding.com, the world's largest video encoding service provider, today announced that it is also the world's fastest Encoding service, with the addition of its game changing new feature -Instant Encoding(TM). With Instant Encoding, the Encoding.com platform will start transcoding source videos as the download process begins, dramatically accelerating the entire video workflow. In benchmark beta testing with multiple customers, the overall encoding process - including download, transcode, and delivery - improved by 30 to 100% depending on the source video size. In many cases, especially with large source video files, the encoding process was complete by the time the initial download was finished.

With other video service providers, video encoding will begin once the entire source video file has been received, which can be disadvantageous for large, high-definition videos. Instant Encoding strengthens the case for moving all in-house encoding to Encoding.com's cloud-based service by eliminating the concern of moving large files to the cloud. Encoding.com is offering Instant Encoding as a premium value-added-service, at no extra charge, and requires just the addition of a simple API call: <instant>yes</instant>.
"With Instant Encoding, we now offer the fastest encoding service on the planet and have moved on-premise encoding solutions one step closer to the grave," said Gregg Heil, CEO of Encoding.com. "We've tackled the biggest challenge facing cloud-based encoding providers, which is the speed of the overall process including moving source videos to the cloud. With 1,600 customers, Encoding.com has already proven the benefits of our cloud-based, SaaS approach to video encoding. With Instant Encoding, it's now a no-brainer."
