AWS Announces Elemental MediaConnect Router

AWS Elemental MediaConnect Router

AWS announces the general availability of AWS Elemental MediaConnect Router, enabling dynamic routing of live video between sources and destinations in the AWS network. This capability simplifies managing complex live video workflows in the cloud, eliminating the need to reconfigure infrastructure as routing needs change.

MediaConnect Router optimizes content delivery across the AWS network, reducing transport latency and improving packet delivery reliability compared to standard transport technologies. It supports routing between inputs and outputs in any supported region, as well as between private and public endpoints, eliminating operational overhead and unused capacity costs.

You can start using MediaConnect Router through the MediaConnect console, via MediaConnect API, or AWS CDK. It works independently or alongside existing MediaConnect flows and can be part of a larger video workflow with AWS Elemental, a family of media services that help customers process, monetize, and deliver high-quality video at global scale.

What to do

• Start using MediaConnect Router through the MediaConnect console, MediaConnect API, or AWS CDK.
• Integrate it into your existing MediaConnect flows or larger video workflows.
• Explore MediaConnect Router capabilities in all standard AWS Regions.
