Kaltura offers a broad Video Platform as a Service, as well as turnkey video based SaaS solutions across all these markets.

Platform as a service (PaaS) or application platform as a service (aPaaS) is a category of cloud computing services that provides a platform allowing customers to develop, run, and manage applications without the complexity of building and maintaining the infrastructure typically associated with developing and launching an app.

PaaS can be delivered in two ways: as a public cloud service from a provider, where the consumer controls software deployment with minimal configuration options, and the provider provides the networks, servers, storage, OS, 'middleware' (e.g. Java runtime.NET runtime, integration, etc), database and other services to host the consumer's application; or as a private service (software or appliance) inside the firewall, or as software deployed on a public infrastructure as a service.

In computer programming, an Application Programming Interface (API) is a set of subroutine definitions, protocols, and tools for building application software.

In general terms, it is a set of clearly defined methods of communication between various software components.

A good API makes it easier to develop a computer program by providing all the building blocks, which are then put together by the programmer.

Lecture recording refers to the process of recording and archiving the content of a lecture, conference, or seminar.

It consists of hardware and software components that work in synergy to record audio and visual components of the lecture.

It is widely used in universities and higher education in the UK to provide support for students.

71% of institutions replying to a UCISA survey in 2016 indicated that this technology was available in their institution.

Where lecture recording is done at scale the recording system may be integrated with the timetabling system and the collection of metadata may be automated.

A webcast is a media presentation distributed over the Internet using streaming media technology to distribute a single content source to many simultaneous listeners/viewers.

A webcast may either be distributed live or on demand.

Essentially, webcasting is "broadcasting" over the Internet.
