In an exclusive collaboration, Enveu partners with Layercake, SMPTE Oceania, Grass Valley, AI-Media, Sharon AI, and NEXTDC to unveil cutting-edge camera-to-consumer media workflows that promise to revolutionize the industry.
[Sydney, NSW, 22nd October 2024] – Enveu, a leading provider of innovative streaming technology solutions, is proud to announce its participation in “The Future of Media” event, hosted in collaboration with Layercake and SMPTE Oceania. This event will feature a showcase of revolutionary camera-to-consumer workflows, developed in partnership with industry powerhouses Grass Valley, AI-Media, Sharon AI, and NEXTDC.
The event, open to SMPTE members and friends will allow the audience to experience first-hand, how Streamcake, Layercake’s Media Orchestration and Automation platform, autonomously establishes fully operational live production workflows, seamlessly integrating best-in-breed technologies such as Grass Valley’s AMPP solution, AI-Media’s LEXI captioning and media enrichment service, and Sharon AI’s on-demand Cloud GPU Infrastructure, all connected via NEXTDC’s AXON network.
In a first-of-its-kind demonstration, Layercake will also unveil how its platform automates the live production infrastructure and deployment workflow to offer a live feed of the production that can be accessed globally via Enveu’s OTT Web Platform. SMPTE audiences worldwide will experience this production in real-time, showcasing the potential of next-gen broadcast solutions.
Cost control is now at the forefront of every broadcast operator’s strategy. The traditional model of leaving infrastructure running 24/7 is no longer sustainable. Layercake recognises that the future lies in operating infrastructure, networks, applications and workflows “as-a-service,” which allows for seamlessly deploying and destroying infrastructure. This approach enables operators to ramp resources up or down, powering systems on and off as needed. Not only does it offer more efficient capacity management, but it also significantly reduces costs when resources are not in use.
