Cloud Media Processing
Cloud computing is gaining momentum as a substitute for traditional IT infrastructure, due in large part to its on-demand model for providing computing resources.
Telecom service providers, looking to derive the same benefits, are now investigating cloud computing for delivering IP media services across public and private networks. A significant hurdle is that public Internet networks were not designed to satisfy the telecom industry’s more stringent requirements around real-time performance and reliability.
Still, cloud computing for IP media services using Intel multi-core server platforms is a viable option for telecom service providers who are aware of the technical challenges and take proactive steps to address them.
