How it works

AWS Elemental MediaStore is a storage service optimized for media that gives you the performance, consistency, and low latency required to deliver live streaming video content.

Why MediaStore?

MediaStore is a media-optimized origin store for your workflows, giving you the performance, reliability, and scalability you need to stream live video content from the cloud. Designed specifically for media applications, the service writes bite-sized video segments to storage and outputs up-to-date files, scaling with demand as your audience increases and cutting latency to the absolute minimum.

Use cases
