Abstract: Disk-based technology has clearly moved into the main, stream broadcast environment. Stations increasingly choose to make the transition from tape to disk technology. Second generation server technology facilitates this migration, enabling broadcasters to improve operational flexibility and reliability while supporting new revenue opportunities. First and second generation servers use a similar architecture, but the second generation adds significant capabilities. This paper explains the basic approach and workings of the latest broadcast server architecture, exploring the trade-offs required to develop a reliable, expandable and affordable system Focusing on on-air applications, the paper discusses approaches to distributed server implementations using MPEG compression and modern networking technology, and the impact of architectural choices on future capabilities.
