Ankeena, the media infrastructure provider formerly known as Nokeena Networks, introduced on Tuesday morning Media Flow Director 2.0, an update to its 3-screen content delivery platform.

Media Flow Director is a 3-screen delivery platform because it is optimized specifically for a world in which users watch video on multiple devices--TVs, mobile phones, and computers. New in the update is a mixed media caching feature, which makes it possible for Ankeena's solution to handle just about any media content. Also, Media Flow Director 2.0 incorporates comprehensive support for live streaming capabilities as well as a transparent proxy for ISP-like deployments.

Ultimately, Akeena aims for providing a smooth, TV-like experience across the Web. By adapting to variable network conditions, Ankeena's promises its consolidated rich content delivery solution can avoid the choppy and mixed results of its competitors' online media providers. Media Flow Director runs on standard x86 hardware.

Ankeena and its backers believe Media Flow Director will prove to be a rewarding solution, as they predict video alone to make up 50% of Internet traffic in 2012.

Since the company's formation in February of 2008, Ankeena has focused on improving its content infrastructure. Most recently, Ankeena announced a partnership with Juniper Networks to coordinate their methods for lowering the cost of video delivery. To date, Ankeena has raised $15.2 million in funding.
