Delivering live content from AWS Elemental MediaPackage - AWS Elemental MediaPackage v2

Delivering live content from AWS Elemental MediaPackage

AWS Elemental MediaPackage uses the following resources for live content:

  • A channel group is the top-level resource that consists of channels and origin endpoints that are associated with it and that provides predictable URLs for stream delivery. All channels and origin endpoints within the channel group are guaranteed to share the DNS.

  • A channel is the entry point for your live streams from upstream encoders.

    For supported live inputs and codecs, see Supported inputs and outputs.

  • An origin endpoint tells MediaPackage how to package outbound content. Endpoints are associated with channels and hold encryption, stream, and packaging settings.

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