洛杉矶,加州(2021年5月4日)
Whether binge-watching a new series, catching a baseball game live or tuning into an online event, modern audiences favor personalized viewing experiences. 顺应这一趋势, UK-based media delivery startup Streamly envisioned a portable multichannel encoding and processing solution built on
AWS媒体服务 that’s transforming how audiences watch live events online, from concerts to corporate webinars and beyond. 用它, event organizers can easily synchronize and aggregate multiple HD camera feeds from a venue for cloud video processing and make them accessible to audiences for live and on-demand viewing with dynamic graphics overlays and geographically tailored ad insertion. Audiences can then select from a host of camera angles to drive their own viewing experience.
Streamly’s solution comprises six rack-mounted
AWS元素链接 encoders on-site, one for each channel served online. The Streamly team monitors the feeds remotely from Streamly’s main facility in the UK, while an on-site engineer provides hands-on support. Link encoders synchronize live feeds from camera or video production equipment on the ground for secure, 可靠的传输到
AWS元素媒体 cloud-based video processing service and recording to
AWS Elemental mediaststore AWS媒体服务 handle a majority of the backend processing, while proprietary Streamly software and an SDK allows others to add the Streamly app into their own streaming environments. After the event, users can mix the MediaStore recording and make it available for on-demand viewing.
“The whole idea of Streamly is to help give event organizers a more secure, cost-efficient way to live stream shows into people’s homes and at the same time give viewers more control over what they’re seeing,Streamly创始人里奇·艾伦说. AWS元素链接, MediaLive, 和MediaStore使这成为可能, helping to ensure a more positive viewing experience for audiences as they toggle between camera feeds, 无论是观看现场直播还是点播.”
In addition to harnessing AWS元素链接 and Media Services, Streamly also leverages AWS as its preferred cloud provider and taps
Amazon CloudFront 用于基于云的内容交付. “We needed a cloud provider to get the signals where we wanted them to go, 我们的应用程序不标准, so we knew we’d also need the expertise of AWS Elemental to handle all of the intense, 它需要实时处理. Having AWS Elemental’s premium support 24/7 has been priceless to us and our clients,” Allen added. “We can now do things that we couldn’t before and eliminate points of failure. Rather than encoding HLS at the ground level and moving it to a CDN, 与AWS, we have one solution that oversees the entire workflow in a tight little package that’s easy to use.”
Allen is confident that Streamly is on to something new for music and theatre fans, 公司员工, 贸易展的与会者, 以及其他现场活动的观众. With a hybrid solution built on AWS technologies, it can support live event production anywhere in the world with centralized monitoring from its UK office. 艾伦的结论, “AWS媒体服务 help us ensure a positive user experience for live event streams that can add value and at the same time open up previously untapped revenue streams for artists, 唱片公司, 公司, 以及其他活动组织者. We think it’s a win-win for the industry overall and can’t wait to continue advancing the service as our international user base grows.”
