In January 2008, the Wikimedia Foundation and Kaltura announced that they had begun a collaboration aimed at bringing rich-media to Wikipedia and other wiki websites.

[9] The technology behind this project is a form of video-wiki software (of open source purport) that was integrated into the MediaWiki platform as an extension, allowing users to add collaborative video players that enable all users to add and edit images, sounds, diagrams, animations and movies in the same manner as they do today with text.

[13][14] Apart from serving educational institutes like Harvard, Yale, NYU, and others, Kaltura also helps media companies and telcos like Vodafone, Watch Brasil, and Bouygues Telecom, as well as enterprises like Oracle, SAP, Intel, Bank of America, and AT&T.

[20] Kaltura built use-case-centric applications for business, media, and education to facilitate the integration of video into specific workflows, from an open, API-focused architecture.

[21] In April 2019, Kaltura announced its intention to develop Cloud TV with Dativa through a dedicated data lake.

[27] In 2023, Kaltura started integrating generative AI capabilities into its digital experience solutions to enrich content, search and discovery, interactivity, and analytics.
