Tulix Systems Ranked in Top CDN Suppliers for Speed and Performance

Performance Substantiates Tulix Claim as Industry Standard Benchmark for Live Streaming

Tulix Systems, the innovation leader in managed IPTV and multi-screen services, is now officially qualified as one of the Top CDN suppliers for speed and performance.  Current industry standard testing shows Tulix Systems CDN as one of the Top 5 CDNs based out of Atlanta, GA, as part of a group including a Tier 1 cable operator, a major State University and two other top tier CDN providers.

The results of this testing and ranking provide quantifiable proof that Tulix Systems CDN is acknowledged as one of the same caliber as the top CDN suppliers in the industry.  This accredits the Tulix CDN as of the highest speed and performance that is part of Tulix’s benchmark live streaming capability.

“It is very gratifying that a well-accredited industry standard approach to testing CDN speed and performance has shown what we’ve known for some time,” said Kenan Acer, Chief Creative Officer at Tulix Systems, “that the Tulix CDN supports the highest performance level and should be ranked among the top CDNs in the industry.”

The industry standard Speedtest.net used is based on the Ookla/Speedtest approach, referenced within the cornerstone MIT study, “Understanding Broadband Speed Measurements,” released on June 2010.  This study provided in depth analysis of many broadband speed attributes and as part of the study MIT wholly endorsed the Ookla/Speedtest approach.  One of the key differences of the Ookla/Speedtest approach versus other approaches was the Ookla/Speedtest takes into consideration multiple TCP connections to collect the measurement data which overcomes certain measurement limitations that most other testing approaches incur.

This accreditation means Tulix CDN customers can now test their uplink speeds directly to the Tulix network servers.  And for other CDN customers needing a premium reference point for testing their performance, they can use Tulix as providing benchmark and namebrand CDN service.

Tulix Providing the Industry Benchmark for Live Streaming

The Ookla/Speedtest approach used here takes in consideration whole performance, starting with “filling the pipe” of a connection up to full 1Gb/s and measuring the maximum potential throughput of that connection, and combines this level of testing with other factors key to supporting video streaming including packet loss, latency and jitter.  The highly ranked result of the Tulix CDN in this comprehensive testing approach substantiates the company’s claim that it provides the industry standard benchmark for live streaming.
