This page provides an overview of the Hive Streaming partner ecosystem, including our partner programs, key concepts, and guidance for partners and companies interested in integrating or reselling Hive Streaming solutions.

## What it does

The Hive Streaming partner ecosystem enables platform and service providers to collaborate with Hive Streaming through structured partner programs. These programs support partners in integrating Hive technologies, marketing, selling, and delivering reliable video streaming solutions to mutual clients.

## When to use it

Participate in the partner ecosystem when your organization wants to:

- Integrate Hive Streaming technology into your own video platform or service

- Resell Hive Streaming products or services

- Access resources for partnering with Hive, including documentation, support, and marketing materials

Common scenarios include software vendors seeking a stable video delivery solution, system integrators adding video optimization to their offerings, and value-added resellers promoting Hive-powered streaming solutions to end customers.

## Key concepts

**Commercial & Reseller Partnership Program**: A structured program for sales and marketing collaboration with Hive Streaming. It supports both integration partners and pure resellers, offering flexibility based on each partner&rsquo;s business model.
