Kaltura – Video Content Platform

August 29, 2018 Issue 7, IT News, Uncategorized

Kaltura is a cloud-based video management system that can be used for storing, publishing, and streaming videos, video collections, and other types of media. The system works with Blackboard and accounts are now available to University of Maine System students, faculty, and staff.

Over the past two years, the University of Maine System has worked to implement a new video content platform known as Kaltura. For the past year, Kaltura has been connected to Blackboard and is in use for course based video needs. Also available now is video.maine.edu, which is the web-based interface for all Kaltura video content.

For those of you with content already in Kaltura from Blackboard, you will also find all of those recordings at video.maine.edu. For those not using Blackboard or who want to create and share video within the UMS community, you can do so through this website. Video.maine.edu is also where all Zoom recordings will go for those using that tool.
