ITV Content Store joins the ITBW

The UK’s ITV Content Store is the final broadcaster case study to join the line up for The IT Broadcast Workflow at BAFTA next Tuesday, writes Fergal Ringrose.

The UK’s ITV Content Store is the final broadcaster case study to join the line up for The IT Broadcast Workflow at BAFTA next Tuesday, writes Fergal Ringrose.

Red Bee Media recently launched a new service for ITV to store, enhance and deliver its content to platforms including ITV Broadcasting, Amazon, BT Vision, iTunes, ITV.com and Virgin Media. This case study, sponsored by Snell, will be presented by Chris Wood, principal software architect at Red Bee Media.

Content Store was an evolution of Red Bee’s digital workflow platform, enabling ITV to control and manage its media, metadata and workflows via generic interfaces with its own systems. Although customer-specific workflows were necessary, they were developed extremely rapidly, yet in a way that was able to grow with ITV’s requirements and ambitions.

Learn about how this agility was achieved through the combination of a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) approach, BPMS-powered process management and event-driven business logic. Share Red Bee’s experience applying the BXF standard with web services to maintain interoperability with downstream vendor systems.

This completes the line-up of ten very different broadcast case studies from around Europe at The IT Broadcast Workflow event on November 30.
