AWS renews Gold SVG Europe sponsorship

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has renewed its Gold sponsorship of SVG Europe.

For 14 years, AWS has been the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. It offers over 175 fully featured services for compute, storage, databases, networking, analytics, robotics, machine learning and artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, mobile, security, hybrid, virtual and augmented reality, media and application development, deployment, and management from 77 Availability Zones within 24 geographic regions. The company has also announced plans for 18 more Availability Zones and six more AWS Regions in Australia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Spain and Switzerland.

Millions of customers — including the fastest-growing startups, largest enterprises and leading government agencies — trust AWS to power their infrastructure, become more agile and lower costs.

Verizon Business recently partnered with AWS and the NHL on a new 5G-enabled cloud broadcasting solution. Running on AWS Wavelength Zones, a mobile edge compute service that delivers ultra-low-latency applications for 5G devices, this solution accelerates the speed from content capture on ice to broadcast going from seconds to milliseconds.

Together with AWS, the NHL produced its first-ever live-to-air cloud broadcast of the Carolina Hurricanes vs. Washington Capitals game in March. This technology enabled the NHL to broadcast the game through AWS Elemental MediaConnect, a transport service for live video, giving the league the scale to maximise centralised production crews in the league’s offices and production headquarters.
