Architecture

One software chain for operators, broadcasters and telcos - from contribution to the viewer, on your own hardware, no per-channel licence.
Build your own platform using the complete StreamVX product portfolio—or select only the components you need.

How it runs

Our products, your hardware.

Every block on the map is software. It runs where you already run things - and stays under your control.

COTS server

Commodity hardware

x86-64 or ARM servers, brand new or already in the rack. Same broadcast-grade performance and a fraction of proprietary appliance cost.

Appliance

vxFlex

Ready-to-rack 1RU modular chassis. Reception, transcoding, packaging and modulation as vxApps in a single rack unit - extraordinary density on site.

Existing hardware

GPU, FPGA, QuickSync

Reuse NVIDIA, Intel QuickSync, FPGA or ASIC acceleration you already own. Drop-in replacement for encoders reaching end of support - no maintenance contracts.

Virtual

VM, container, cloud

The same products run as virtual machines or containers, on-premise or in your cloud. Data, keys and analytics stay in your own jurisdiction.

Open interfaces

Fits the headend you already have.

The dashed lines on the map are standard interfaces. Third-party systems plug in without custom development.

Control

REST API & web GUI

All configuration and control of every product through one RESTful API and a web console. Platform backends and hotel middleware integrate over the same API.

Content protection

CPIX & Multi-DRM

Keys exchanged over CPIX between packager, key server and receivers. Widevine, FairPlay and PlayReady from one licence server on your own hardware.

Widevine Certified
Advertising

SCTE-35 & VAST

Ad markers pass through transcoding and packaging untouched. VAST 2.0–4.x and VMAP inventory feeds the broadcast splicer and the OTT manifest manipulator alike.

Monitoring

vxMetrics, SNMP & syslog

Per-channel quality scores, stream health and key status in vxMetrics dashboards. SNMP traps and syslog into the NMS you already run.
