Adding streaming video content to your site
In my last post, I showed how to turn on Amazon S3 support in Sitefinity. In this post, I will show how to create a simple video site using the video library support that is bundled with 3.6 release. It is often required that you want to add a streaming video content to your site, either it could be a product demonstration or a getting started tutorial. Using third party video provider is one way to get the job done but sometimes it requires a lot of manual work, thus headache for managing them as the library grows bigger. 3.6 release breaks you free from all these and provides an easy way for creating , uploading and managing video content.

Amazon S3 support in Sitefinity 3.6
Here at Telerik, Sitefinity team is preparing for the 3.6 release next week. 3.6 comes with lot of core level enhancements and cool new features. Of which , I can't but mention one feature that will make most ISV vendors who want the power of CMS but want to let go their pain of managing large content. As, the title suggests its external storage support via Amazon S3. The data plan for hosting and transferring data to/from S3 server is pretty cheap these days in return to world class service with almost zero downtime that it offers which of course makes the most of your money. If you are not familiar with Sitefinity to add it is a product by Telerik that comes with full content management features along with blogs, news, events, list and few other pre-made modules with easy setup and management via unique control designer.
