Content Workflow Platform
Architecture
Mediator's architecture is based on a number of key principles which allows Mediator to provide an optimized workflow to meet business' objectives for delivering content. Mediator ensures that the right content is in the right place, at the right time, with "built-in" quality.
Mediator is based on the following principles:
- Decisions are driven by business systems - Mediator uses business priorities and channel management systems (rights management, scheduling, traffic, etc.) to define workflow decisions.
- Apply rules, profiles, and DRM as workflows - Mediator establishes preset workflows and applies rules to automate workflows in order to remove costly manual processes.
- Manage how media moves through workflow - Mediator manages the file flow through the workflow engine. This allows operations to focus on the task at hand, rather than how/when to obtain material.
- Prioritize based on rules - Mediator prioritizes file flows through the workflow engine to gain greater efficiency of operations while maximizing business objectives.
As a result, Mediator maintains an "ingest once, use everywhere" philosophy that enables a high volume "in" and "out" workflow engine.
