BuyDRM Releases KeyQ™ DRM Analytics Portal to Provide Customers Critical DRM Usage Data Points
Industry’s First DRM Analytics Platform for Marketing, Management, Legal and Finance Personnel
Austin, TX(29 Sep 2020)
September 29th, 2020 – Austin, TX – BuyDRM announced today the release of KeyQ Analytics, a real-time insights dashboard providing critical data points on DRM usage to BuyDRM customers. KeyQ is the result extensive R&D and development of the KeyQ Engine lead by the company’s CTO, Andrew Popovs in conjunction with the company’s Chief Scientist, Vladas Sukevicus. Together they bring over thirty-two years of experience in designing, developing and deploying commercial DRM solutions for consumer media.
The KeyQ Analytics dashboard is designed for non-technical marketing, management, legal, and finance professionals to view a global snapshot of how effective their use of DRM is with the KeyOS MultiKey Service. The portal is the safest and most secure way to view this data and is firewalled completely from the BuyDRM client’s KeyOS Console account. This enables KeyQ to be made available to non-operational and non-technical roles within the media organization.
This release represents a visual presentation of several new evolutionary improvements to the KeyOS Platform and how DRM licensing data is collected, analyzed, validated and presented to clients. As part of this development effort, BuyDRM has moved away from the legacy approach to DRM statistics that their competitors widely employ, where many vendors are using a centralized database of stats that relies on cumbersome and latent log file collection from various licensing endpoints.
As the analytics component of the KeyOS multi-DRM platform, KeyQ relies on a highly-modernized distributed log file collection, analysis and processing approach to enable massive scale and security. Using these distributed components for DRM analytics development, the KeyQ engine in KeyOS speeds this business intelligence to key decision-makers and stakeholders in client organizations.
Today KeyQ supports a baseline set of DRM analytics which will be augmented over the next two quarters. The following metrics are available in KeyQ: a list of packaged files, total DRM license keys issued by DRM, the license delivery IP, the Filename, the ContentID, the KeyID, the ExternalID, the date and time of licenses issued, the geographical region of license consumption as well as peak requests per second and average requests per second. This “DRM heartbeat” will help drive customers’ business decisions while navigating their deployment strategies.
"We’re excited to see the KeyQ Engine and KeyQ Analytics come online which help our customers get the insight that ultimately helps them succeed in the marketplace,” said Andrew Popov, CTO at BuyDRM. “These data points help our customers understand peak usage times, favored playback platforms, and pinpoint hot spot usage locations, which are critical to understanding your business’ success.”
