Skyline DataMiner MediaOps

Unified programming, live operations & file/asset workflow automation for broadcasters who want better, faster and more economical operation.

The DataMiner MediaOps combines ICT practices with deep media expertise, offering tools for resource planning (people, spaces, equipment, bandwidth), live signal & processor control in productions, and automation of the content chain from ingest/recording to distribution and archiving. Built on the platform DataMiner xOps and is extensible with low-code applications and APIs.

Better

  • Data-driven operations & compliance with modern ICT practices
  • Comprehensive inventory for signals, resources, transponders, IP ranges (IPAM)
  • Unified QoS/QoE monitoring

Faster

  • Instant scheduling & penalty box for on-air operations
  • Ready-to-use operator panels for connections/processor control
  • Low-code apps & pre-designed workflows

Cheaper

  • Resource optimization & automation that reduces OPEX
  • Seamless integration with existing CMS/PAM/NLE/Cloud
  • Continuous costing & billing per project/production

What does MediaOps cover?

Planning & Reservations (PLAN)

End-to-end planning for events/productions, reserving resources, spaces & bandwidth, with setup/teardown automation.

Live Operations (LIVE)

Unified real-time control & orchestration with operator panels for signal routing/processing, penalty box, and rapid recovery.

File / Asset Workflows

Ingest, QC, versioning, distribution & archiving automation. Interoperability with PAM/CMS, on prem & cloud infrastructures.

Unified Inventory & Management

  • Signals (DB signal) with optional sync in NMOS IS-04 registries
  • Technical resources & pools, facilities/spaces, human resources & shifts
  • Management IP multicast ranges with connection to IPAM
  • Asset discovery & connection with CMDB / ITSM

Indicative Use Cases

  • Unified planning of satellite & IP connections, SNG/Contribution & Remote Production
  • Playout/Channel Ops: routing, processor control, monitoring, QoS/QoE
  • OTT/VoD pipelines: ingest, transcode, packaging, publication
  • News/Editorial collaboration with PAM/NLE, automation of hand-offs
  • Costing & cross-charging per project/client

Awards & Development

MediaOps has been awarded with IABM BaM Award and continues to evolve with new features such as MediaOps.LIVE for unified real-time control & orchestration together with MediaOps.PLAN.
