How Sedin Technologies Helped Deliver Five 9's (99.999%) Availability for Critical Streaming Infrastructure at Starz

The Beginning

Starz is a leading global media and entertainment company producing premium streaming content for worldwide audiences. They offer subscribers over 7000 distinct television episodes and feature films, including original series and first-run movies across multiple platforms. The client's previous IT support was underperforming, causing excessive time managing issues and affecting DevOps team productivity.

The Discovery

Sedin Technologies found that Starz needed a fully managed 24/7 DevOps support strategy to ensure five 9's availability for their critical streaming environment. Their assessment showed that Starz's internal IT Operations team handled routine issues instead of focusing on value-adding activities. Sedin aimed to set up continuous monitoring while creating proper documentation and standard procedures for smooth operations.
