Cognizant today said it will acquire digital video solutions vendor itaas.

Cognizant did not share financial terms for acquiring the Atlanta, Georgia-based itaas that assists television providers and broadcasters, particularly cable channels, to deliver live streaming and video services on digital platforms.

Itaas has approximately 200 professionals in the U.S., Canada, and India.
