Much has been published about the evolution of open-source software-defined media processing pipelines. However, to date, this has largely been hype without much in the way of actual implementations. In our paper, we well present a platform available today for the easy development and deployment of media processing pipelines for transcoding and AI applications. This platform implements an open-source software architecture that combines broadcast industry standards (SMPTE ST 2110, AMWA NMOS, RIST, SRT and NDI) with proven IT industry methods (Docker, Kubernetes and Helm) running on common-off-the-shelf (COTS) hardare that prevents vendor lock-in, on-prem, in the cloud or on the edge. Applications developed for this platform are easily deployed using an open-source automation layer and can be dynamically interconnected to build any desired pipeline or workflow. The presentation of this paper will also include a remotely controlled demo that hightlights the features and capabilties of the platform.
