TV, film and multimedia delivery specialist Cinnafilm is to acquire the RadiantGrid Intelligent Media Transformation Platform from Wohler Technologies. Under the agreement, intellectual property, products and support contracts related to the RadiantGrid product platform will be integrated into Cinnafilm’s own technology development to provide ongoing feature enhancements.

Currently using Wohler’s RadiantGrid software platform as the processing framework for its Tachyon Wormhole system, Cinnafilm can now extend its technology to the RadiantGrid customer base. ‘Cinnafilm has been partnering closely with Wohler for many years as a worldwide distributor of the Tachyon Wormhole appliance,’ says Cinnafilm President and CEO, Lance Maurer. ‘Our collaboration with Wohler and the integral use of our Tachyon technology within its RadiantGrid platform made it a smart decision to acquire RadiantGrid and market it as our own.’

‘With constantly developing standards and the rapid growth in new media distribution platforms, the transfer of the RadiantGrid technology to Cinnafilm will allow Wohler to concentrate on building next generation hardware and software tools within the signal monitoring space, while Cinnafilm focuses on providing world-class customer support and product development of RadiantGrid,’ says Wohler President and CEO, Mike Kelly.

Wohler will assist Cinnafilm during a transitional period to ensure a smooth transfer of support and services for its valued customers with a goal of ensuring minimal to no impact to ongoing services.
