2. Agenda
▸ Enterprise video landscape
▸ Typical use cases and best practices
▸ Why build on AWS Elemental Media Services
▸ Video Center on AWS
▸ Case study
▸ Video Center demo
▸ Q&A
5. Enterprise video usage
is increasing, with
employees creating
and watching videos at
an increasingly higher
rate
6. Fundamental Changes In The Industry
Unification of Platforms
Consumers are looking to
extract more functionality out of
smaller set of enterprise
communication technologies
Undifferentiated solutions with
singular functions must evolve to
remain relevant
Enterprise technology companies
need to extend their capabilities to
differentiate their offerings
Integrate AWS services
complementary to enterprise video
such as object recognition,
automated transcription, translation
Better Efficiencies
Able to use new functionality
which make their usage of video
technologies more efficient
Delight consumers by rapidly
releasing enhancements which
increase usability and enable
process efficiencies
Understand and implement process
efficiencies enabled by new machine
learning solutions
AWS Media Services make it fast and
easy to prepare, process, and deliver
video in the cloud with pay-as-you-go
pricing. Resources scale automatically
with workflow complexity and audience
size.
Service Availability Anywhere on
Any Device at Scale
Cloud adoption enables
enterprise video services to be
available with minimal set up
Enterprise technology providers
must evolve their platforms to
embrace hybrid or all-cloud
solutions
AWS enables video technology
providers to adopt any of its services
via open APIs, partner and
marketplace programs
Adopting cloud where efficiencies
increase ROI. Possibly modify
operational and commercial models
when deploying cloud solutions
