1 FIMS Introduction & Innovation at NAB 2013

2 FIMS Business Imperative Create and leverage existing infrastructure Build a flexible, reliable and scalable media processing platform Support multiple content creation sources Provide capabilities of distributing and monetizing media worldwide Manage multiple devices and platforms (broadcast, mobile, web...) Maximise options from varying vendors

3 The FIMS Concept Decode the black box Expose traditional systems as services Eliminate embedded media processing business rules Speak the same language Leverage a standard interface across media services Define a common representation for media objects Universal brain Centralize decision-making and business processes Provide a flexible platform to adapt to new business requirements

4 A change of philosophy Media Orchestration System Capture Function Edit Function Transform Function Playout Function Common I/F for Capture Capture Service Common I/F for Transform Transform Service Common I/F for Transfer Transfer Service

5 The Proposition: SOA for media Before SOA tightly coupled With SOA Capture Function Transfer Function Transform Function Common I/F for Capture Capture Service Media Orchestration System Common I/F for Transform Transform Service Common I/F for Transfer Transfer Service Short term efficiency Long-term efficiency Standardizing common interfaces is essential.

6 FIMS adapter plug&play

7 FIMS 1.0 Services for Media

8 FIMS 1.0 Workflow Agility & Scalability

9 FIMS 1.0 A data model

10 FIMS 1.0: Approved and published! Specification FIMS Base Framework Three Services: Capture, Transfer, Transform SOAP / RESTful agnostic Reference Implementation Available Test Harness Submitted to SMPTE FIMS 1.0 Download link ftp://fims:nab@ftp.ebu.ch/fims%20specification/

11 Phase 2: More for MEDIA Media Orchestration System FIMS I/F for Capture FIMS I/F for Transform FIMS I/F for Transfer FIMS I/F for Transfer FIMS I/F for Transfer Media Service (Capture) Media Service (Transform) Media Service (Transfer)... Media Service (Repository) Media Service (QA/QC)

12 NAB: Repositories Work led by Bloomberg/Triskel, VSN, Interra, Dalet, Avid, IBM CRUD (Ingest, Create, Read, Update, Delete) and metadata What is the FIMS repository interface? Query interface: what is where in which format? Service interface with workflow engine Implementation.Net, XSDs, WSDLs (also in Java) and soon REST Pilots at VSN and Avid

13 FIMS Repository Benchmark: Bloomberg Global organization 3 main datacenters (NY-London-Hong Kong) 169 bureaus Bloomberg TV Average of 16 hours per day of live content Follow the markets Bloomberg Media Channels Web ( Mobile (Ipad BTV+, IPhone, Androids,.. ) Syndications Affiliates

14 Repository version 1 - SOAP and REST - Synchronous and Asynchronous

15 Repository Interface Design FIMS Repository Interface Orchestration System Process Exercise events (asset Retrieve repository purged ) the operation repository and (Add configuration notifications Content, and (call Retrieve capabilities back for Async Essence) operation) FIMS RCR Service FIMS Repository Events & Notifications Vendor System

16 Repository in Media Organization FIMS Repository Service FIMS Repository Service Federation Service FIMS Repository Service Media Asset Management Media Workflow Video Editing System FIMS Repository Service FIMS Repository Service FIMS Repository Service Broadcast System Metadata database Near Line Storage Metadata database Archive Storage Metadata database

17 More NAB: REST Work led by Quantel, BBC, Signiant, Harris REST: REpresentational State Transfer Used by web streaming and cloud-based transform services RESTful binding for FIMS 1.0 services Representation of resources e.g., a video clip or a transfer job Simple HTTP operations for managing resources dependent on their state Under development: reference implementation, test suite and examples Data model representation in JSON In complement to the existing WSDL/SOAP bindings and reference implementation already available for FIMS 1.0

18 First NAB: Quality Analysis Work led by Interra, Sony, BBC, Bloomberg, Cube-Tec, digimetrics, IRT... Define service interface to QA tools Analyse and report vs. specific criteria and thresholds Advanced: add pass/fail parameters and determine how to act Support fine grain reporting or audit trail Collaborate with EBU Quality Control Strategic Programme Consult with vendors Common QC languages Structure / wrapping integrity control points (incl. metadata extraction) Audio and video compression attributes and control points Audio and video essence attributes and control points

19 Next: Priorities set by Users! The FIMS Business Board Led by Turner, ABC, Ad-Id, AMWA, BBC, Bloomberg, BSkyB, CBC, EBU, Fox, HBO, ITV, MLB, MTV, NBC, NFB, NRK, RAI, Red Bee Media, RTL/BCE, TV Globo, Viacom, Scope and duties Maintain business focus Identify business needs Prioritise FIMS work BB review Concept queue BB Review - Concept Cue - BB review Proposal queue BB Review - Proposal Cue - Project Concept Approve Project Proposal Approve Project Pipeline More Info Deny More Info Deny Constant Prioritization Technical Improvements, Retirement On Hold On Hold BB Review - Portfolio - Work In Progress Completed Work

20 Future FIMS NAB Under discussion for prioritization Resource Estimation for Reservation (Core) Proxy Browse Media Search and Retrieval / Media Asset Management (MAM) IP Stream Capture (Capture) Descriptive Metadata Service / Automated Metadata Extraction, Linking Forensic Marking, Media Logging (Production) Preparation for Edit (Production) VOD / Broadcast Preparation (Media Supply):
