AGNOSTIC MEDIA -- PRODUCTS -- GRIDCODER ™ SCALABLE INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH TRANSCODING
Scalable high-performance network-based transcoding
Media transformation and transcoding is not just storage and CPU intensive, it is time intensive. Agnostic Media is proud to introduce GridCoder™, a revolutionary approach to transforming massive amounts of media in minutes. GridCoder™ still features Agnostic’s “no-click transcoding” for hands-off media transformation but in a much greater distributed and scalable manner, which fits into any workflow. GridCoder™ has been built to address the growing requirements of companies whose focus is expanding beyond broadcast and into IPTV, broadband/streaming, and mobile media. Media types vary but Agnostic is capable of transforming any type of media- from podcasting to broadcasting and everything in between…
GridCoder™ is a parallel grid transcoding platform capable of transforming content at the highest quality, in minutes instead of hours. The number of servers dedicated to GridCoder™ determines the throughput. What is so revolutionary about GridCoder™? GridCoder™ brings HPC (high performance computing) architecture to the broadcast and media world. GridCoder™ utilizes InfiniBand as its back-end to move 30Gigs of data per second at 17ms latency to data, resulting in massive throughput.
Agnostic Media offers a suite of applications and solutions built upon its AMFX™ (Agnostic Media Frameworks). These applications and solutions empower media companies, cable operators, advertising agencies, publishers, record labels, service providers, retailers, and corporations with the technology necessary to address the demands of their various groups and departments - from production to distribution, concept to legal, and etc.
