    Session Details
    When bandwidth and connectivity is no longer a constraint, the rules change. Can online services transform the way media is created and delivered?

    Often called cloud computing, remote, dynamically scalable services already offer web-based enterprises the opportunity to deliver business solutions without the need for local hardware and software platforms. Can the same model be applied to bandwidth-hungry broadcasters and processor-intensive post production? Can broadcasters facilities be freed from geographical location? Can the cloud provide quality of service we regard as essential for production and delivery to today's critical audience?

    IBC brings together some of the leading thinkers on the subject for a series of papers and a panel discussion. Laced with practical examples of new broadcast infrastructures and production techniques, this session will put the cloud service model under the closest scrutiny to see how it can challenge established practices.
