Overview
MediaLive Anywhere is a feature of AWS Elemental MediaLive that lets you run live video encoding on premises while using the cloud for management. MediaLive Anywhere is deployed on your hardware to process video on premises while configuration, control, monitoring, and management tasks are done in the cloud. You can use MediaLive Anywhere to minimize video transit, improve hybrid workflow operations, and connect to on premises video sources and destinations.
AWS Elemental MediaLive Anywhere consists of a pay-as-you-go service that requires one or more appliances to run. AWS recommends you purchase hardware from AWS Partners that assemble, integrate, test, and support systems for use with MediaLive Anywhere. If you are interested in using other appliances with MediaLive Anywhere, please contact sales.
