Transforming video processing with groundbreaking efficiency isn't just a tech achievement - it's an economic and environmental imperative. Scalstrm's Dominique Vosters joins us to reveal how their innovative approach to origin packaging and transcoding is delivering extraordinary results for broadcasters and video providers worldwide. When a single customer replaces 40 servers with just two while saving $90,000 annually on operational costs, the industry takes notice. Founded in 2017, Scalstrm built their high-performance video processing solutions from scratch, focusing on three core principles: performance, flexibility, and ease of use. Now, they're bringing that same philosophy to transcoding through a partnership with NETINT Technologies. The conversation explores how just-in-time transcoding is finally becoming viable at scale through hardware acceleration. By storing only the highest quality profile and generating lower resolutions on demand, Scalstrm helps customers reduce storage requirements by 50-60%. Their intelligent approach to Multi-Profile Video Recording (MPVR) keeps all profiles for the first few days when viewership is highest, then removes lower profiles to optimize both performance and storage efficiency. We dive deep into deployment scenarios across on-premises, private cloud, and public cloud environments. The emerging hybrid cloud model enables broadcasters to run core channels in their data centers while quickly spinning up "pop-up channels" for special events in the cloud. With Scalstrm's microservices architecture, customers can deploy exactly what they need, where they need it - whether that's live processing in one region or VOD in another. Sustainability emerges as a central theme throughout our discussion. Beyond the marketing buzz, Scalstrm demonstrates how technological innovation directly contributes to both cost reduction and environmental responsibility.
