Abstract: New codecs such as AV1 will enable broadcasters and service providers to deliver higher quality, including 4K and 8K VR, but with increased complexity. Since adaptive streaming requires multi-resolution synchronized encoding, the delivery of next-generation video becomes even more challenging. For live applications, the amount of complexity is unmanageable with current CPU or GPU on-premises technologies. This paper will examine the limitations of on-premises server-based encoding and how cloud computing can solve these issues. It will outline how broadcasters and service providers can take advantage of new applications like event-based encoding to successfully deliver superior-quality video on every screen.
