SAN JOSE, Calif.-- BrightSign, the provider of the most advanced, capable, and trusted digital media players and operating system, has launched BrightSign Control Plus, a premium tier of its device management solution for digital signage players, on Amazon Web Services, Inc (AWS). BrightSign Control Plus delivers advanced fleet management at scale for digital signage networks across industries including retail, restaurant, corporate, healthcare, and transportation. For simplicity, BrightSign Control Plus provides a consolidated view into fleet status, with access to health dashboards, automated alerts, system navigation, and AI to aid diagnostics. This allows customers to take a real-time, proactive approach to fleet uptime, avoiding issues that arise with reactive management.
To deliver return-on-investment and perform reliably in increasingly diverse environments, modern enterprise solutions must be flexible and scalable to evolve alongside business needs. By using AWS’s efficient cloud infrastructure, BrightSign can keep costs manageable while still scaling to support 300,000+ players deployed worldwide today, with room to grow well beyond that.This means that BrightSign Control Plus can manage anywhere from a few to thousands of digital signage networks, and support simultaneous self-healing, software updates, bulk actions, and job scheduling. It empowers IT managers, system integrators, multisite operators, CMS partners, and anyone provisioning technology fleets to configure and monitor at scale, without the headaches associated with having to inefficiently manage each individual unit.
“Our top priority is to provide our customers with the most intelligent digital signage solutions that marry best-in-class hardware with the right software, services and support. Launching BrightSign Control Plus on AWS is a continuation of that mission,” said Steve Durkee, CEO of BrightSign. “Running Control Plus on AWS’s trusted platform enables us to provide customers with reliable, secure, flexible, and sustainable digital signage, regardless of the scale or size of the deployment. This means complete visibility and unmatched control of digital signage networks from anywhere.”
BrightSign Control Plus uses a wide range of AWS services to enable its functionality and support day-to-day operations. These services include: Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), Amazon EC2, Amazon RDS & Aurora, Amazon S3, Amazon CloudFront, Amazon GuardDuty, Load Balancing, and AWS Control Tower. Building on AWS's secure platform allows for continuous, built-in security monitoring and consistent governance across BrightSign’s cloud environment, minimizing risk and maintaining uptime. Using AWS also supports the storage and delivery of content, helping businesses offer dynamic, engaging experiences without capacity challenges. This is further supported by AWS's efficient infrastructure.
From small one-off installations to large digital signage fleets, BrightSign Control Plus running on AWS makes device management simple at any scale with superior visibility and control.
