Vizrt, a leader in real-time graphics and live production solutions, has made its cloud-ready video production switchers – TriCaster Vectar and TriCaster Now – available in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace.
This move simplifies the testing, purchase, and management of Vizrt's tools for content creators.
Behind the Scenes
TriCaster Vectar (formerly Viz Vectar Plus) supports up to 44 external sources, ideal for larger news and sports productions. It can be deployed in customers' AWS accounts for free testing, with customers managing AWS costs.
TriCaster Now caters to smaller seasonal or entry-level productions and corporate town halls, supporting up to 8 inputs. It offers a fully managed SaaS service with usage-based credits pricing.
AWS Marketplace provides a centralized portal for access, testing, and billing of cloud-based TriCaster video production tools, making it easier than ever for content creators to take their first step in achieving truly remote live productions.
Final Take
The availability of TriCaster systems in AWS Marketplace is a significant step for Vizrt, enabling content creators to easily access and utilize these powerful tools for remote live productions, while reducing travel costs and carbon emissions.
This move aligns with the growing importance of cloud technology in the modern media landscape.
