Varnish Software, a player in high-performance content delivery and streaming solutions, and Hydrolix, a real-time, global-scale data platform, announced a strategic integration to provide real-time traffic visibility for high-volume video workloads.The joint solution, optimized for Varnish Enterprise and the ORA Streaming managed service, has been showcased at the NAB Show April 19-22nd 2026 in Las Vegas.

As global demand for live and UHD streaming scales, broadcasters using Varnish Enterprise and ORA Streaming generate massive volumes of log data. Traditionally, managing that scale and the sheer cost of storing this data in traditional data platforms has forced providers to sacrifice visibility. These visibility gaps can impact root cause discovery times and worse still, the critical data needed may have already been discarded or archived. This integration solves that trade-off by combining Varnish’s industry-leading edge performance with Hydrolix’s global scale and long-term retention platform. On top of that efficient scale, they provide unmatched real-time data analytics and visualization. The combination provides a lightning fast and always hot data fabric that also delivers huge reductions in storage costs.

“For our Varnish Enterprise and ORA Streaming customers, real-time data is essential for maintaining Quality of Experience (QoE) and operational control,” said Lars Larsson, CEO, Ora Streaming. “By integrating directly with Hydrolix, we are enabling Tier-1 broadcasters to ingest every single log line from their video workloads without the ‘data tax’ associated with legacy tools. This allows for instant detection of delivery issues and deeper traffic insights at a fraction of the traditional cost.”

The partnership aligns both companies’ roadmaps to meet the evolving demands of streaming security and content protection. By combining Varnish’s edge logic with Hydrolix’s real-time data platform, the companies are establishing a foundation for advanced telemetry use cases that require the massive data throughput and millisecond-latency analysis essential for modern secured delivery environments.

“Varnish is the gold standard for video delivery, and Hydrolix is the gold standard for real-time data analytics and internet-scale operations,” said Enrico Risi, VP of Strategic Sales, Hydrolix. “With more than 700 customers already leveraging Hydrolix, which includes 80% of the world’s CDNs, to scale their data and get insights ins, this integration with Varnish Enterprise and ORA Streaming is a natural evolution for the streaming industry.”
