Tech Talk: Turbo-Charged Just-in-Time Transcoding A Game-Changer for Distribution
Blazar, the Just-In-Time Transcoding (JITT) solution from igolgi, enables many new streaming use cases, as well as the ability to slash CapEx, OpEx, and carbon emissions for transcoding. For example, targeted ad insertion can be improved by dynamically inserting the best ad. For streaming OTT systems, Blazar JITT allows operators to reduce the size of their origin/cache and VOD systems by 50% or more since Blazar JITT can be used to provide any lower profile requested on-the-fly, and therefore only the top profile needs to be maintained in the system. This slashes costs and energy usage. Blazar also has the ability to regenerate any arbitrary profile on-the-fly, which in turn can enable a completely new evolution to content distribution by not requiring a static profile set in a manifest. Blazar can run on-premise or in the cloud and is in production today.
