SoftBank Deploys Large-Scale WebRTC-Based Conferencing Application Enabled by Dialogic

PARSIPPANY, N.J., Feb. 17, 2016

"As SoftBank holds regular sales and training conferences with many of our 17,000 employees in Japan, our need for  conferencing and collaboration is critical to our business," said Yosuke Ochiai, Manager of Multimedia Development at SoftBank's Information System Division. "We found Dialogic PowerMedia XMS to be an excellent fit for our conferencing infrastructure upgrade as its performance, scaling, and reliability meets our needs. Additionally, Dialogic PowerMedia XMS delivers HD voice and video codecs with additional features like automated speech recognition (ASR) and text to speech (TTS) to support future capabilities we have planned, along with facial recognition and other advanced intelligent features." SoftBank has currently rolled out this solution to internal stakeholders with plans to make this commercially available in the near future.

"SoftBank's needs for collaboration creates unique requirements for scaling and reliability," said Jim Machi, Senior Vice President of Product Management and Marketing at Dialogic. To support such scaling requirements, SoftBank is utilizing Dialogic's patent pending 'dynamic video encoder sharing' technology to reduce compute resources by 30-50% thus reaching far beyond typical conference densities. We are especially pleased that Dialogic PowerMedia XMS is a part of the SoftBank conferencing solution, helping to reduce operational and travel costs related to conferencing."
