On-demand Webinar: Unified Headend – The next step in TV transformation

Posted on by Russell Trafford-Jones


On Demand Webinar
This webcast assesses the benefits that Unified Headend delivers using software-defined video solutions. It outlines the extent to which operational efficiencies can be maximised even without virtualization.

Experts will discuss:

  • The migration towards software-based video processing, the services and functions that have benefited and the impact this ‘software-defined video’ is having on multiscreen and primary screen companies.
  • Why a Unified Headend is the natural next step for operators and broadcasters using software-defined video, and the operational impact when unifying currently separate video workflows (like broadcast and multiscreen).
  • How a Unified Headend helps when launching new services like 4K/UHD, skinny bundle OTT offers, and other new services.
  • Industry developments that could make the migration to a Unified Headend easier, and what you can do now to prepare the ground for a Unified Headend later.
  • How to implement a Unified Headend in a multi-vendor environment, technical challenges when merging different systems, and the implications for operations teams.

Speakers from IABM, DellEMC, ITV Studios talking about AI, HDR, 5G, SDN and more.

The evolution to IP networks’ replacement of SDI is itself moving in multiple phases. But it’s not just this that we have to consider; enterprise IT infrastructure and workflow tools are getting a workout too.

Please join our panel of industry experts including Thomas Burns, Field CTO for Media & Entertainment, Dell and Rob O’Brien, Senior Application Manager, ITV Studios as we explore the seismic shifts in our industry and discuss:

  • AI-based metadata extraction from media archives
  • Telco 5G re-architecture encouraging adoption of SDN  & NFV by media companies
  • Distributed file – object workflows for collaborative content production
  • Financial modelling tools to calculate the costs of moving data in the pipeline
  • Orchestration layer and “service bus” –based workflow management tools
  • Media functions virtualised using FPGAs vs. GPUs
  • “Build vs. Buy” OTT strategies for linear broadcasters
  • Content Security concerns with networks carrying premium content

Webinar: Smarter Storage for 4K – @QuantumCorp

Posted on by Russell Trafford-Jones


Date: 14th November 2017, 10:00 ET, 15:00 GMT
Join Quantum’s Jason Matousek as he discusses the impacts of 4K and what you can do to better manage your data. Jason will answer questions about how video production teams should be planning for higher resolution workflows. There is a lot of information out there that’s confusing and flat-out contradictory. In 45 minutes, we hope to provide some clarity on common questions like do I need flash or can Ethernet support all my 4K needs?
