And now I\u2019ve got a reliable way over the internet to get my content into a cloud production facility. And isn\u2019t that cool? I can spin up. I have unlimited storage. I have unlimited compute. I can just go for it.\u201d However, \u201cyou still needed somebody to shade cameras, for example. I\u2019ve got multiple cameras at the venue. If they don\u2019t have that tool set on-prem, is it being replicated in the cloud? Do I have that capability? A lot of times as people have moved away from these purpose-built video solutions into maybe more of a COTS [commercial-off-the-shelf] world where I\u2019m looking at log files and I\u2019m dumping everything into my big data lake and that\u2019s my visualization on how things are working, that doesn\u2019t really work for a lot of the things that are needed for a live production.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>How Remote Production Has Changed Workflow<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Haren noticed \u201ca quick rush to engage both for live producing more live events as well as capturing those live events for production of, for example, halftime shows and highlight reels and so forth. All that was well-suited for enabling in a remote production environment, but lacked a lot of that observability, and we see a lot of customers coming back to that.\u201d He\u2019s looking for answers to questions such as, \u201cCan I spin up a dynamic multi-viewer and get real-time visibility into the health of all my streams? And not just, can I see them, but if there is a challenge, do I know what that challenge is? Do I know where it\u2019s being introduced?\u201d In remote production, he says, there\u2019s a lot of finger-pointing when something goes wrong, due to \u201cso many hops between that camera and my production team.\u201d It used to be easier to find the single cause of what went wrong.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAnd that\u2019s where the observability comes in,\u201d he continues. \u201cBeing able to\u2014in a software-defined way, in an agile way\u2014spin up monitoring across your production and be able to really analyze and understand at a really deep level what\u2019s happening at that handoff point is vital.\u201d Then \u201cI\u2019m making changes at the venue or I\u2019m making changes in my network settings, etc. And I can immediately see those impacts, but it\u2019s not just me seeing that. I can share that with the other vendors and other partners that are part of this distribution,\u201d Haren says. \u201cBeing able to do that dynamically has been something that\u2019s \u2026 pretty recent\u2014at least at scale and with the detail that most of these productions require\u2014but it just unlocks a higher degree of comfort with moving more of the production into a remote domain when I have robust observability around it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Collaborated Observability Is Key<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think we\u2019re kind of coalescing around something important here, which is the new technologies and advancement certainly has driven the importance of collaborated observability,\u201d Okoli chimes in. His questions include: \u201cSo how do you share the same visual across many teams? How do you actually have that visibility or gain access to that visibility in real time? How do you get alerted across those multiple hops, as [Haren] put it? My content\u2019s left with the correct fidelity from point A, but it may not arrive with the expectation on quality that you expect [at point B]. Something happens in between. So how do you determine that?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zixi is focused on these answers, Okoli notes, and collaborated observability \u201cdrives the interop and standards because everybody might use different tools, might use different protocols, different transmission mediums, [or] they might cut across all the way to the other side.\u201d Making sure everyone can gain access to that observability is important, he says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cTelestream is one of our partners, so we make sure we can bring all that information, all the stats to their equipment that\u2019s then virtualized on our platform for our customers to make sure that they can jump on and gain access to the same visual,\u201d Okoli shares. AI or automation can help with the number-crunching and provide real-time alerts, he says, \u201cbecause in some cases in the creative environment, this is happening live in the real world and you want to track this as it goes along.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.streamingmedia.com\/Conferences\/Connect2026-August\/Default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Join us August 11\u201313, 2026 for more thought leadership, actionable insights, and lively debate at Streaming Media Connect 2026!
