Ground-to-Cloud Media Transport Integration – Standards and Approaches

The integration of live signals into cloud-based production and playout applications across vendors brings unique challenges - hear about how the VSF is working to address these complex workflow requirements. The integration of live signals into cloud-based production and playout applications across vendors brings unique challenges - the multitude of possible codecs, how to signal and find the endpoints, and making the transport robust against troubles. Within cloud-based workflows the fun really starts - how to send media signals between elements of a large-scale workflow such that the timing of the whole chain is managed - without replicating the traditional "frame-lock-step" approach we use on the ground. This session talks about the current work within the VSF to establish a flexible timing model and set of recommended practices for ground-to-cloud-to-cloud-to-ground workflows.
