Essential Guide: Productive Cloud Workflows

Tony Orme, Editor at The Broadcast Bridge

It’s quite incredible to think that real time broadcast signal workflows are now actively encouraging software processing. It wasn’t so long ago that video images had to be processed in hardware to meet the tight timing constraints that live video processing demands.

But what do we mean by the term “cloud workflows”? Why are they so powerful? How do they work? And how do we use them to empower collaboration and future proofing broadcast facilities?

This Essential Guide reviews exactly what it means to operate a cloud workflow. It provides answers to scaling, SaaS provision, collaboration, and APIs. RESTful control and monitoring combined with JSON data exchange has proved itself in the rest of the internet community, and with this Essential Guide we look at how it is influencing broadcast television.

This Essential Guide has been written for technologists, their managers, and anybody looking to improve their knowledge of cloud-born infrastructures and workflows.
