Microsoft is expanding on the Portals portfolio with the new Office 365 Video, the first of many NextGen Portals landing in Office 365. Microsoft will roll out to Office 365 First Release customers and they are expecting it be fully deployed worldwide to all Office 365 customers by early calendar year 2015.

Video is one of the most powerful mediums of communication. Office 365 Video provides organizations with a secure, company-wide destination for posting, sharing and discovering video content. From onboarding new employees, to distributing a CEO message company wide, to community contributions, video is now a first-class citizen to power and enrich your internal communications.

With a beautiful user interface and intuitive content management options, Office 365 Video is designed to meet the requirements of IT and win the hearts and minds of users. Powered by Azure Media Services—the same service used during the Olympics (6,000 plus hours of video in 18 days)—Office 365 Video benefits from adaptive smooth streaming technology optimizing video playback for the device it’s being viewed on. It, too, leverages Yammer and the Office Graph to deliver a social, personalized experience within Office 365.

Office 365 Video is focused on four core elements: 1) simplicity, 2) discoverability and share’ability, 3) mobile and 4) built-in security and easy to manage. Read about it in detail from the link below.
