Today, Echo is proud to announce the one-year anniversary of our flagship product, Echo StreamServer. In February 2011, Echo launched StreamServer at a special event in San Francisco to an audience of digital marketing executives, developers and silicon valley influencers, with a promise that the platform would help usher in a new era of real-time interactivity on the web. One year later, the real-time web is becoming a reality, with Echo serving 1.3 billion real-time streams per month on behalf of some of the largest and most recognized brands in the world. Here are a few highlights…
- Echo StreamServer is an open platform that enables brands to build real-time functionality into their websites and cross platform user experiences.
- Echo StreamServer can absorb over 1,000 social activities per second and simultaneously transform those items into a configurable, interactive stream.
- The real-time web platform currently serves over 1.3 billion real-time streams per month and has over 14 million consumer end-users.
- Echo powers three of the top four social TV brands as reported by AdAge.
- Key customers include Showtime, Reuters, USA Networks, Universal Music Group, World Wrestling Entertainment and The Washington Post.
As brands continue to adopt real-time functionality at record speeds, Echo continues to evolve the StreamServer platform and our partner ecosystem to serve as the foundation for the next billion streams. We couldn’t be more excited about this milestone and hope you will raise a glass with us to toast the real-time web.
