Overview

A hands-on industry event focused on cloud-native media architectures on AWS. Together with AWS and selected technology partners, we’ll present an end-to-end media infrastructure, put each solution contribution in context, and share lessons learned from projects. The agenda includes discussions, time for in-person conversations, and an optional technical masterclass. HALLO HYBRID is for anyone who plans, operates, or advances media infrastructure, from engineering teams to leadership. Attendance is free, but space is limited. We’d love to have you join us.

The Concept

The first agenda item sets the stage. "The Concept" explains why cloud-native architectures are becoming increasingly important in the media industry, which requirements matter today, and what roles the key stakeholders play. LOGIC and the participating partners AWS, Grass Valley, Sony, Vizrt, Telestream, and Octopus will outline their approach and place their solutions within a shared reference architecture.

Paneldiskussion

n the panel discussion, the participating partners will share their perspectives on the evolution of cloud-based and hybrid workflows in the media industry. The conversation will focus on lessons learned from real-world projects, different approaches, insights from other markets and their requirements, and topics such as hyperscalers, sovereignty, and MXL. Together, we’ll discuss what has proven effective in practice, what customers expect today, and which solutions are being implemented right now.

Masterclass
14:10 pm – 16:10 pm
Registration required

Run the Solution

n this masterclass, we invite you to take a deeper dive into the infrastructure presented at the event. Together, we’ll build selected parts of the environment on Amazon Web Services and take a close look at how the individual components work together.
The focus is on the partner solutions running on AWS. We’ll explore one or two topics in more depth and bring them online together, creating a practical understanding that helps you connect the technical dots and later replicate setups in your own AWS account.
Technical experience is welcome, but not required. Capacity is limited to allow time for questions, discussion, and hands-on work. If you’d like to join the masterclass, you can indicate your interest when registering for HALLO HYBRID. If space is available, we’ll reach out to you.
