The mediaSaaS Platform

Defines the architecture for modern hybrid media environments.

Evolve media operations without media migration or infrastructure replacement.

Repeat with new solutions whenever and wherever they are required.

A common federated metadata and orchestration framework that reduces the complexity, cost and risk of deploying and evolving media technology across cloud, on-prem and archive environments.

Deploy once. Expand continuously.

Once deployed, the Platform provides the foundation for every future mediaSaaS solution, allowing new functionality to be introduced quickly and without disruption.

Build all your solutions on this mediaSaaS foundation.

Reduce the complexity, cost and risk of deploying and evolving media technology across hybrid infrastructure, without media migration or replacing existing systems.

All mediaSaaS Enterprise Solutions are built on this common federated metadata and orchestration layer.

mediaSaaS Platform - the new best practise

mediaSaaS Technology

mediaSaaS provides a hybrid-cloud platform for integrating, orchestrating and evolving media workflows across modern and legacy production environments.

The Platform connects cloud, on-prem and archive technologies, enabling organisations to work across existing production environments without media migration or infrastructure replacement.

Platform Principle

Deploy once. Expand continuously.

Once deployed, the Platform becomes the foundation for every future mediaSaaS solution. Existing integrations, workflows and metadata are reused, allowing new functionality to be introduced quickly and without disruption.

mediaSaaS – Software Integrator

mediaSaaS Platform - the new best practise

The mediaSaaS Framework

Deploy solutions faster, with less risk.

The mediaSaaS Platform is designed to simplify the configuration and deployment of broadcast and media solutions.

Instead of the traditional cycle of design → tender → integrate → test, the Platform enables organisations to

design, deploy, validate and evolve

solutions iteratively within a hybrid cloud architecture.

Solutions can be deployed:

  • as standalone workflows
  • as integrated enterprise solutions
  • or as custom deployments tailored to specific operational requirements

In a highly competitive environment Broadcast & Media companies need to be more agile, reduce cost & risk and increase ROI

Streamline your business now

No more waiting for big budget approval or a long technical build

A quickly deployable and flexible solution to develop your business how you want, when you want

Innovative Technology

A microservice based platform using industry-standard technologies to provide fast, flexible solutions to problems in content-to-consumer workflows such as media-prep, content management & processing and delivery whether cloud, on-prem or hybrid

SaaS pricing

No high entry cost and simple subscription costs according to volume make the platform really cost-effective

Introducing the mediaSaaS Framework

Your solution, your way

Design, deploy, evolve, repeat

The mediaSaaS Platform is designed to evolve with your organisation.

Start with a single solution, then expand across existing production environments as operational requirements evolve. Existing metadata, workflows and integrations are reused, allowing new functionality to be introduced quickly and without disruption.

Solutions can be deployed as:

  • Standalone workflows
  • Enterprise solutions
  • Custom solutions tailored to operational requirements


Rapid Solution Deployment

  • Validate solutions before large-scale investment
  • Reduce integration risk
  • Accelerate time-to-value
  • Modernise production without disruption


Enterprise Solutions

Build all your solutions on the mediaSaaS foundation.

  • Federated Search
  • Enterprise Edit
  • Enterprise X-Change

The Platform also supports the development of custom workflows and solutions tailored to specific operational requirements.

mediaSaaS Platform - the new best practise
mediaSaaS Rapid Deployment Framework - the new best practise
  • No undeliverable specifications
  • No supplier over-promises
  • No non-delivery
  • No missing must-haves
  • No endless attempts to achieve the unachievable

Design, deploy, evolve, repeat. The new best practise!

Once deployed, the mediaSaaS Platform establishes a persistent operational layer that enables the environment to evolve incrementally over time.

Hybrid Architecture – stepping stones to the cloud

mediaSaaS Platform

Platform Architecture

The Platform Architecture is designed to unify metadata, workflows and assets across distributed infrastructures.

Once deployed, the Platform becomes the basis for future mediaSaaS solutions. Existing metadata, workflows and integrations are reused, allowing new functionality to be introduced quickly and without disruption.

As additional systems, workflows and storage environments are added, the Platform continuously expands operational visibility, workflow continuity and metadata intelligence.

Enterprise Framework

Enterprise features are delivered through the Platform as modular solutions that can evolve over time.

  • Enterprise Federated Search
  • Enterprise Edit
  • Enterprise X-Change

In addition, the Platform supports the development of custom workflows and solutions tailored to specific operational requirements.

Hybrid Architecture – stepping stones to the cloud

mediaSaaS Framework uses a Hybrid Cloud architecture

We use the cloud where there are benefits

And interface to on-prem equipment too

Legacy or new

Seamlessly

We create proxy copies of media and store them in the cloud providing total flexibility & cost control

Our secure UI using Google Chrome provides access anywhere, interoperability & collaboration

Redefine “Best Practise”

It can be Challenging to define needs when you’re still Discovering what New Technology can offer

This can be Costly and Time Consuming to deploy

Better to Evolve your requirements through PoCs and knowledge gained from experience

Reducing Risk by iterating solutions using mediaSaaS Framework produces the results you want, quicker & cheaper than traditional methods

Easy to add to existing system, (eg Edit)

***********************************

Orchestration & Workflow Backbone

Automates and controls workflows across systems, reducing manual intervention

Object Management Layer

A management framework responsible for storing, tracking and managing all objects, from video and audio to documents and metadata, regardless of location or processing stage.

Microservice Deployment Environment

A scalable microservice architecture using industry-standard technologies, enabling rapid low-risk deployment of best-of-breed partner applications and services.
