New – AWS Elemental Link – Deliver Live Video to the Cloud for Events & Streams

Source:-idk.dev

Video is central to so many online experiences. Regardless of the origin or creator, today’s viewers expect a high-resolution, broadcast-quality experience.

In sophisticated environments, dedicated hardware and an associated A/V team can capture, encode, and stream or store video that meets these expectations. However, cost and operational complexity have prevented others from delivering a similar experience. Classrooms, local sporting events, enterprise events, and small performance spaces do not have the budget or the specialized expertise needed to install, configure, and run the hardware and software needed to reliably deliver video to the cloud for processing, storage, and on-demand delivery or live streaming.

Introducing AWS Elemental Link
Today I would like to tell you about AWS Elemental Link. This new device connects live video sources to AWS Elemental MediaLive. The device is small (about 32 cubic inches) and weighs less than a pound. It draws very little power, is absolutely silent, and is available for purchase today at $995.

You can order these devices from the AWS Management Console and have them shipped to the intended point of use. They arrive preconfigured, and need only be connected to power, video, and the Internet. You can monitor and manage any number of Link devices from the console, without the need for specialized expertise at the point of use.

When connected to a video source, the Link device sends all video, audio, and metadata streams that arrive on the built-in 3G-SDI or HDMI connectors to AWS Elemental MediaLive, with automatic, hands-free tuning that adapts to available bandwidth. Once your video is in the cloud, you can use the full lineup of AWS Elemental Media Services to process, store, distribute, and monetize it.
