Hosted Marlin Service
Hosted Marlin Service (HMS) is a new cloud service for delivering Marlin DRM licenses to customers on demand, using a pay-as-you-go model. It is ideal for content publishers, broadcasters, and Over-the-Top service providers who do not wish to operate their own Marlin servers. Customers can start small and scale up; as with all Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) architectures, this service is also ideal for high-volume customers.
