Performance of Elemental Live appliances
This section looks at the factors that affect the performance of an AWS Elemental Live appliance, with particular emphasis on the newest appliances. It provides guidance about how to maximize performance while achieving the preferred balance between density, speed, and quality.
-
Density is the number of output encodes or events that you can run on an appliance.
The density is affected by the following:
-
The capabilities of the appliance.
-
The compute demands of the individual events, especially the demands to achieve the desired video quality in the outputs.
-
-
Speed is the rate at which the workflow content can be processed or transmitted. With live events, there must be enough compute power applied to achieve real-time ingest of the input and real-time encoding of the output.
-
Quality refers primarily to the video quality.
This section describes how to obtain the balance that suits your requirements.
