With television broadcast rights across the MENA region, OSN has a history of providing value for customers with its focus around on-demand content, and digital platforms. OSN’s strength is its programming led by its long-term partnerships with major studios including Disney, HBO, NBC Universal, Fox, and Paramount to name a few.

OSN has been at the forefront of digital technology innovation in MENA, introducing firsts to the region with both its OSN Play and OSN On-Demand offerings. The company is modernising its existing technology systems and recently shifted to a new multi-cloud hybrid architecture to become even more efficient and ensure a seamless service for customers.

SnapLogic, provider of intelligent integration platform, announced that OSN, a leading entertainment network across the Middle East and North Africa, has selected SnapLogic’s Intelligent Integration Platform to modernise its IT environment and support its use of cloud services across the organisation. Using the SnapLogic platform, OSN has successfully implemented an effortless migration path from its existing systems to new cloud-based systems, including Microsoft Azure SQL Data Warehouse, with minimal manual coding requirements.
