Overview

PowerMedia XMS energizes application delivery by boosting performance with:

PowerMedia XMS elevates what developers can create for their customers, from virtually any development environment, connecting to virtually any type of communication endpoint.

PowerMedia XMS is a powerful next-generation media server software that enables standards-based, real-time multimedia communications solutions. PowerMedia XMS offers a rich variety of advanced media processing functions, including audio and video play/record, multimedia conferencing and mixing, as well as transcoding with HD Voice and video codecs. It can be used to build numerous real-time multimedia processing solutions from traditional voice messaging, IVR, and conferencing to innovative video conferencing and social interaction applications.

PowerMedia XMS is controlled by the business logic of applications deployed on SIP application servers and web application servers. PowerMedia XMS offers multiple media control protocols that can be used in a variety of network infrastructures. For example, a SIP application server (AS) can drive PowerMedia XMS using the MSML control interface or use Network Announcement (NETANN) to direct the PowerMedia XMS VoiceXML (VXML) browser to execute VXML scripts. For Web 2.0 and Cloud development, a web application written in an appropriate language (such as, Python or JavaScript) can control PowerMedia XMS using the HTTP RESTful interface.

Note: Network Announcement (NETANN) and VoiceXML (VXML) with Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP) are new interfaces and integral components of PowerMedia XMS Release 2.0.

The MSML and RESTful interfaces support multimedia – both audio and video, using a variety of codecs. NETANN and VXML media options are currently audio-only.

PowerMedia XMS provides powerful and user-friendly OA&M functionality, and can be managed remotely through a web-based operator console and the HTTP RESTful Management interface.

A wide variety of SIP endpoints can be handled by PowerMedia XMS, resulting in the delivery of rich full-duplex audio and video media streams to a variety of fixed and mobile devices.

The following figure illustrates an example of a video conferencing delivery platform for a PowerMedia XMS-based multimedia conferencing solution.
