1+1 media achieved a record data transfer rate on the Internet

Holding "1+1 Media" expanded the content delivery channels on the Internet to 800 Gbit/s. Thus, the group became the first among Ukrainian media companies, and the second in the Ukrainian market after the YouTube video service, in terms of connected data transmission channels to users of sites and applications.

The new content delivery infrastructure is able to simultaneously provide video viewing in HD quality for 400,000 viewers. In terms of consumption of text content, this can be compared with 2 million users who are on the group's sites and applications.

The modernization of data transmission channels is connected with the increase in demand for video on the Internet and the desire of the audience to watch it in HD and Full HD formats. Thus, the most popular content among users of the holding's resources were sports broadcasts, prime time series, recordings of concerts and shows. For example, the second season of the series "#School" on the 1+1 video platform averages about 3 million views.

"Demand for our content on the Internet is growing, so to ensure a positive user experience for our online audience, we are constantly modernizing the content delivery infrastructure. In the next year, we plan to expand the data transmission channels twice", - says the director of the digital direction of 1+1 media Anna Tkachenko

As a reminder, the media group previously launched the 1+1 video mobile application for Android phones with access to a video library containing 20,000 hours of Ukrainian films, series and shows.
