#### What is DAVS?

DataBasics Audio Video Solution (DAVS) is a Cumulus add-on or plugin. With DAVS, a customer can upload any audiovisual file into Cumulus and it will be converted to a format that will play in the Cumulus web apps such as Sites, Web Client and Portals.

This may seem to be a simple definition of what most customers would want. What if you have more complex needs, which is almost always the case? Below are some of the questions we have been asked by users wanting to extend the AV experience in Cumulus.

 

#### Possible Extensions for DAVS

DAVS is available as a low cost add-on to the Roboflow automation tool to provide basic functionality, i.e. play in web portal front ends. However, DataBasics Professional Services team is happy to consult with you to determine your desired outcome and deliver a solution to match.
