Why AWS Media Services?

Focus on content

Allocate your staff resources where they can make the biggest impact: your content and services. Set aside the undifferentiated heavy lifting of acquiring and maintaining video transport, processing and delivery hardware, so you can focus on creating and delivering innovative video experiences and delighting your viewers.

Meet unpredictable needs

Eliminate the guesswork of capacity planning for video workflows. AWS Media Services can grow or shrink resources to handle unpredictable demand for your live and on-demand video offerings. Easily scale to thousands or millions of viewers, eliminating time spent provisioning infrastructure and avoiding the cost of excess resources.

Scale as you grow

Stay ahead of increasing storage, processing, and delivery requirements for video. Scalable services let you keep pace with increasingly large video streams and growing file sizes. Access to AWS storage services, including Amazon S3 and Amazon Glacier, makes it easy and economical to add capacity as video storage needs expand.

Pay as you go

With cloud solutions, pay as you go for media transport, processing, packaging, and delivery. Trade up-front capital costs for predictable, variable expense based on the content you store and process, and the features you use. With AWS Media Services, you can manage your technology spend in alignment with your needs and revenue.

Build and adapt quickly

Be first to launch new offerings, adapt to audience interests, or capitalize new business opportunities. With AWS Media Services, you can quickly build, test, and launch upgrades, channels, or services. Easily incorporate monetization services, security features, or machine-learning tools into your workflow.

Go global in minutes

Extend your media workflow to audiences around the world with a few clicks. Take advantage of network resources to ingest video near the source and distribute content near the viewer for optimal performance and low latency. Standards-based capabilities make it simple to localize your content by geography.
