AWS Elemental Conductor Live

Benefits

Gain efficiencies, reduce costs

With AWS Elemental Conductor Live, you can easily manage multiple AWS Elemental Live encoders and AWS Elemental Statmux nodes. Command and control video processing clusters from a single user interface for significantly reduced equipment costs and management overhead.

Maintain resilient video services

Define the level of system redundancy needed across your video resources to achieve your desired level of service resilience. AWS Elemental Conductor Live supports redundancy and failover for both the Conductor Live node (the node running AWS Elemental Conductor Live) and the worker nodes (AWS Elemental Live and Statmux nodes). Conductor Live software supports N+1 and N+M node-based failover and recovery of channels to keep your services online and delivering content to your viewers.

Streamline setup and administration

AWS Elemental Conductor Live incorporates REST / XML APIs and for easy integration into existing live and linear workflows, such as live events and 24/7 channel playout. Use built-in templates to simplify channel creation. Manage version control and push software updates across entire clusters from one interface. Through easy-to-update software, Conductor Live keeps pace with industry standards so you can continue to deliver high-quality video as screens and devices evolve.

Key features

Task management

AWS Elemental Conductor Live lets you manage the workloads of multiple encoders in real time. Start, stop, and edit video channels with confidence. Task-based controls offer a streamlined approach for simultaneously controlling hundreds of channels or your MPTS output.

Flexible resilience

Keeping live video workflows up and running is a top priority. AWS Elemental Conductor Live lets you set up redundant encoders as failover targets and define the level of redundancy you need to meet your goals for resilience and uptime. Use Conductor Live to easily configure 1+1 (for Statmux channels), N+M, and N+1 redundancy groups with manual or automatic redundancy switching.

Comprehensive monitoring

Real-time visibility into the status of live video workflows helps quickly identify any issues that could impact service delivery or the viewing experience. AWS Elemental Conductor Live lets you monitor all video processing systems simultaneously, and visually confirm channel status for each encoder. Aggregated alerts and messages with advanced filtering simplify monitoring and fault management.

Secure administration

Maintain security of your live video workflow with control over who has access to your encoders and each user’s level of authorization. Authenticated user access for system control and monitoring is available. Audit logs are maintained for individual user actions and changes.
