Using an open-source paradigm, MCS allows media companies to take the raw data from the MCM and expose it to third-party analytic and visualisation applications.
TAG Video Systems will highlight the Media Control System (MCS), the newest layer of the company’s Realtime Media Performance (RMP) Platform. The RMP is a multi-level, open-source solution that monitors, aggregates, manages and utilizes data-driven viewer analytics to provide users with the insight required to build performant linear media systems. It reduces complexity for media companies with tools for them to manage the entire monitoring stack, end-to-end within one system.
Sitting at the foundation of the RMP is TAG’s Multi-Channel Monitoring (MCM) system, its real time visualization solution that monitors every type of signal from live production through OTT delivery and supports hundreds of sources including all the latest formats and transport methods. The MCM provides deep monitoring for critical analysis into signal health in 100% IP 100% software.
The MCS is the next layer and serves as a management, control and aggregation engine. TAG’s MCS represents a new and unique process for customers to use data driven insights to improve media operations, quality of service and deliver an exceptional viewer experience that can be validated and measured, all in an open IT environment. Using an open-source paradigm, it allows media companies to take the raw data from the MCM and expose it to third party analytic and visualization applications such as Elasticsearch, Kibana, Grafana and Prometheus for analysis and data visualization. For the first time, media companies will be able to measure internet networks and CDN performance across all signals, end-to-end, and know where to shift workloads for optimum performance. It will identify cyclical errors within the log file noise and drive faster root cause analysis and recovery from intermittent issues. Media companies can use this deep insight into quality metrics to design a precise and pristine viewer experience leading to an increase in consumption, elevated customer engagement, and heightened loyalty.
