# Delivering VOD content from AWS Elemental MediaPackage
<a name="vod-content"></a>

AWS Elemental MediaPackage uses the following resources for video on demand (VOD) content:
+ *Packaging groups* hold one or more packaging configurations. The group enables you to apply multiple output configurations to an asset at the same time. You can associate a group to multiple assets so that they all have the same configurations for their outputs.
+ *Packaging configurations* tell MediaPackage how to package the output from an asset. In the configuration, you define encryption, bitrate, and packaging settings.
+ *Assets* ingest your source content and dynamically apply packaging configurations in response to playback requests.

  For supported VOD inputs and codecs, see [VOD supported codecs and input types](supported-inputs-vod.md).

The following sections describe how to use these resources to manage VOD content in MediaPackage.
