Monitoring & Compliance In Broadcast: Part 1 - Cloud, Multi-Site & Remote Systems

‘Monitoring & Compliance In Broadcast’ explores how exemplary content production and delivery standards are maintained and legal obligations are met. The series includes four Themed Content Collections, each of which tackles a different area of the media supply chain.

Part 1 contains four articles which discuss considerations for monitoring networks and compute systems in multi-site and remote production systems, the role of file based monitoring in complex production workflows and our partner AlvaLinks discuss their tools for monitoring SRT streams.

About Monitoring & Compliance In Broadcast

Broadcast sets high standards for itself because in a highly competitive media landscape consumers expect flawless delivery every time. Broadcasters are also subject to legislative compliance in a number of areas of operation and delivery.

A robust monitoring strategy is key to meeting these interrelated requirements of ensuring performance benchmarks are maintained, and statutory obligations are met throughout the media supply chain.

This set of Themed Content Collections explore the challenges and solutions to establishing and meeting requirements in key areas of; cloud & multi-site production systems, playout & delivery, OTA RF systems and production systems.

A proliferation of delivery formats and the arrival of new production workflows and multi-site teams is being enabled by IP and cloud based production systems. The established landscape of monitoring is shifting. This series discusses the evolving challenges and new AI powered technologies emerging to help address them.

Monitoring & Compliance In Broadcast will publish in 4 parts. Details of all four parts can be found HERE.


About Part 1. Cloud, Multi-Site & Remote Systems

Part 1 is a free PDF download which contains four original articles:

Article 1 : Monitoring Cloud Networks
Networks, by their very definition are dispersed. But some are more dispersed than others, especially when we look at the challenges multi-site and remote teams face.

Article 2 : Monitoring Cloud Infrastructure
If we take cloud infrastructures to their extreme, that is, their physical locality is unknown to us, then monitoring them becomes a whole new ball game, especially as dispersed teams use them for production.

Article 3 : Monitoring SRT Delivery To The Cloud
Our partner AlvaLinks discuss how to enhance SRT edge-cloud delivery by addressing broadcast and IT engineers complex SRT monitoring challenges.

Article 4 : File Based Monitoring In Production Systems
The evolution of IP based production and increased computer processing power have enabled new workflows, so how is compute resource being deployed to create new remote and hybrid approaches?
