Live media processing is one of the most challenging workloads to be run on a cloud due to carrier-grade network and service availability requirements combined with multicast traffic and complex brown field environments.
This joint session with Swisscom (Schweiz) AG, market leading TV provider in Switzerland, will explain why and how Swisscom is utilizing OpenStack to increase business agility and drastically reduce cost by virtualizing and orchestrating the management and production of Live TV channels, going into details of what technical challenges were faced during the project phase and how they were solved:
- How are NFV principles and reference architectures applicable to media workloads?
- How can Swisscom save 30% cost in the production of TV channels in a virtual headend?
- Why did multicast traffic not work on OVS when the project started, and how did we make it work?
- Why can it make sense to run Docker containers in a virtual machine?
