Cut Costs with 亚马逊网络服务 和 Azure Media Services
In a helpful session at the recent 流媒体 West conference in Los Angeles, 克里斯•诺尔顿, vice president for product management at Wowza媒体系统, told a packed audience how they could save money 和 get better results with a cloud video solution. 他专注于 亚马逊网络服务 和 Microsoft Azure Media Services, explaining the benefits of each. Knowlton started with an overview of how a cloud solution can simplify operations.
"The basic media workflow is going to include a bunch of things from end to end, Knowlton began. “今天, if you're typically doing some kind of streaming 和 either you've encoded some kind of content 和 created a file or you have a live camera, you're pushing through an encoder 和 going to a media server 和 then to a client. That's it at its simplest, purest form. That is a live streaming workflow we see there. That's pretty easy to do on your own. I could do that off of this laptop."
As a company's video efforts grow, however, that laptop isn't going to cut it.
"The trouble is when you start scaling out 和 you start having really large audiences or you try 和 h和le different situations,诺尔顿说. "As you go further down the line 和 start scaling out, you might start adding things like caching tiers or a CDN to h和le scalability so you can reach a much larger audience."
Today's video l和scape is fractured in both the formats used 和 the browsers 和 end-user devices that companies need to support. 更多的 和 more, companies are choosing not to invest in on-premises solutions.
Looking to the cloud for video delivery offers multiple benefits, Knowlton explained:
- 更便宜的
- Able to experiment with new concepts faster without a big upfront expense
- 更快进入市场
- Scale out rapidly to meet a growing audience
- Able to support fluctuating workloads
- Reduce hardware maintenance costs.
