Introduction
Beauty Care Company That Creates Beauty, Health and Culture
Maiim is a company that endeavors to spread beauty and health through cosmetics and health foods while staying in harmony with nature, people and culture as the core values of the company. The company presents safe functional products that are widely loved for their outstanding quality. The main brands for the company are Maiim, Maiim Cosmetics and Maiim Health Food. The company is also realizing their corporate values that are geared toward nature and people by hosting exhibitions, shows and other cultural programs, in addition to running the Mime Vision Village, where people can experience firsthand the company’s corporate identity.
Background
In-House Video-Based Education for Staff Across the Country at the Same Time Every Day
Maiim, with numerous business locations across the country, wanted to provide video-based courses as part of its in-house education and training program. The company wanted to make it mandatory for employees from across the country to watch the video content at the same time, every day, but this would require a reliable video streaming environment, as more than 1,000 people would be watching at the same time. The company sought a solution for this, and in the end, they chose KINX’s CDN service to build a large-scale infrastructure capable of accommodating the large instantaneous traffic.
What did KINX do?
Large Streaming Traffic Occurring at the Same Time, Every Day
To ensure that online courses would run smoothly even when there were a large number of concurrent users, KINX first estimated the traffic that would be expected from all the business locations nationwide. KINX then found it appropriate to have the 24-hour control center immediately deal with problems whenever they arose such as lag. Because the online courses were provided for internal use only, ensuring security of the video content was also pivotal. To this end, security solutions was also provided so that the company could proceed with the online course without concerns of a security breach.
Effect
Seamless Video Streaming Even with the Increase in Concurrent Users
With the infrastructure capable of handling large traffic expected for the online course, Maiim was able to complete the program with great success without any obstacles. By presenting Maiim with a solution according to their needs and demands, KINX was able to allow the company to focus solely on the development of internal education and training content, instead of being concerned with infrastructure. Maiim was also able to save in operating costs by using KINX’s CDN, instead of building their own infrastructure.
