Vimeo

Enveu integrates seamlessly with Vimeo as the video infrastructure layer, giving customers the flexibility to upload and manage videos either directly in Vimeo or through the Enveu CMS, while Enveu handles the complete OTT experience.
Two Ways to Upload Content
1. Direct Upload via Vimeo
- Customers upload videos directly into their Vimeo account using Vimeo’s UI or APIs.
- Vimeo handles encoding, storage, and CDN delivery.
- Enveu connects to the Vimeo account, pulls video assets and playback references, and registers them in Enveu’s Content Manager.
2. Upload via Enveu CMS
- Customers upload videos directly through the Enveu CMS.
- Enveu securely pushes the content to Vimeo in the background.
- Vimeo performs encoding, storage, and streaming, while Enveu manages metadata, workflows, and publishing.
Once the Video Is Available
- Enveu enriches videos with metadata, posters, categories, and attributes.
- Enveu Experience Manager controls how videos appear across apps (Web, Mobile, TV).
- Enveu manages monetization (SVOD, TVOD, AVOD), access control, and subscriptions.
- Vimeo ensures reliable, high-quality video playback using its global infrastructure.
In summary:
