Optimizing Cloud-Based Workflows
Tuesday, February 15, 2022 at 10:00am (PT)
Many streaming operators have embraced the cloud for encoding and transcoding, delivery, analytics, and more. And not only that, but oftentimes the functions of the streaming workflow that have been transitioned to the cloud are often spread over multiple clouds to ensure redundancy and reliability of the overall service. That creates complications for both management of the streaming service and expanding architecture. This webinar will explore how operators can improve performance, security, stability, and scalability as they continue to embrace cloud technologies like containers and serverless functions. The discussion will focus on the challenges operator’s face with increasingly cloud-based workflows and how they might be solved.
