Tyrell’s Take – IBC 2024

swXtch.io

The rise of cloud-based media production offers incredible benefits, but traditional methods of moving video and audio streams through the cloud require advance level of expensive engineering and traditionally subject to high latency.

cloudSwXtch eliminates these hurdles by providing a seamless multicast and ultra-low latency solution across various cloud environments. Benefits include:

• Effortless streaming: Stream Unicast, Multicast SRT, RIST and maintain PTP from on-premises equipment directly to the cloud via swXtch.io.
• High availability and multi-cloud flexibility: swXtch.io isn’t limited to a single cloud platform, even stream to multiple cloud platforms simultaneously. Maintain availability with SMPTE 2022-7.
• Live broadcast workflow: swXtch.io effortlessly routes your audio and video signals to broadcast end points such as vision mixers, multiviewers, and ingest servers.

Storj

Storj is a game-changer in media storage, offering a revolutionary decentralised platform.

This innovative approach delivers several key benefits:

• Sustainability: Storj leverages unused storage space around the world, eliminating the need for new data centres and reducing your environmental impact.
• Global accessibility: Unlike traditional cloud storage providers with regional limitations, Storj offers a single, globally accessible bucket. Your content is instantly available worldwide, enabling streamlined remote collaboration.
• Unbeatable cost-effectiveness: Storj’s decentralised architecture translates to significantly lower costs compared to traditional cloud storage solutions.

cunoFS

We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with cunoFS, a revolutionary solution that unlocks the full potential of object storage.

On-premise or cloud object storage is cost effective but isn’t inherently designed for the familiar file system experience editors, asset management solutions rely on for video editing. cunoFS bridges this gap seamlessly. It acts as a bridge between object storage and your preferred editing software. Couple cunoFS and Storj’s decentralised storage for the next evolution in post production workflows.

With cunoFS you can achieve:
