CMS Content Management System

The Content Management System is the central control center of the OTT service.

Instead of manually changing databases or applications, authorized staff log into a web-based administration system.

From there, operators can manage content, subscribers, packages, pricing, applications, and operational settings.

CMS = The back office from which the streaming business is operated.

Central Dashboard

Manage OTT service operations from a unified web interface.

Content & Channels

Organize live TV, movies, series, and metadata.

Subscriber Operations

Manage accounts, packages, and subscription access.

Content Management

Content management is a major function of the CMS. It organizes the information that viewers see in the OTT applications.

Video on Demand (VOD)

Movie → Title → Description → Poster → Trailer → Video → Genre → Language → Age Rating → Availability → Package

Live Television

Channel → Logo → Stream → EPG → Category → Country → Package → Availability

TV Series

Series → Season → Episode → Video

When a viewer opens the CAST-TV app and navigates to Movies → Action → Movie X, that presentation is generated from information managed in the backend.

Subscriber Management

Subscriber management determines who the customers are and what they are entitled to watch.

Customer Accounts

Maintain subscriber profiles and account information.

Subscription Status

Verify active subscriptions and assigned service packages.

Content Entitlements

Control access according to the subscriber's package.
