Media & Broadcast
When you're on air, there is no maintenance window.
Media and broadcast operations combine IT, engineering and facilities in environments where availability is measured in five nines. Meridian brings direct experience with mission-critical, globally distributed infrastructure to help media organizations modernize without putting the signal at risk.
The landscape
What media & broadcast leaders are up against.
Mission-critical availability
Every system in the chain — contribution, playout, distribution — must be resilient by design.
IT and engineering convergence
The move to IP-based and cloud workflows blurs the line between broadcast engineering and IT.
Distributed facilities
Studios, transmitter sites and remote operations must work as one secure, observable network.
Vendor complexity
Specialized vendors, integrators and carriers each own a piece of the workflow.
