SMPTE+: “Migrating Media & Entertainment Into the Cloud: A Real-World Perspective”

SMPTE^®, the home of media professionals, technologists, and engineers working in the digital entertainment industry, is hosting SMPTE+ virtual event “Migrating Media & Entertainment Into the Cloud: A Real-World Perspective,” now slated for Aug. 31, will feature a session exploring preservation, continuity, and resilience after the move to the cloud. In addition to outlining best practices across these areas, experts will answer the uncomfortable question, “What happens in the unlikely event that the internet fails?”

The complete agenda for SMPTE+ “Migrating Media & Entertainment Into the Cloud: A Real-World Perspective” is online at https://plus.smpte.org/2021plus/media-in-the-cloud.

As another SMPTE initiative to help media technology professionals get ahead and find success, SMPTE+ is free to SMPTE members. Upon registration, they gain access not just to the Aug. 31 event, but also to the immensely popular June 3 event, “Expanding the Color Universe,” and two other SMPTE+ events later this year. Professionals may choose to attend only the “Migrating Media & Entertainment Into the Cloud” event for $99, but SMPTE membership offers even greater value: access to all four SMPTE+ events — and the many other benefits of SMPTE membership — for just $165.

Registration and additional information about the full SMPTE+ series is online at plus.smpte.org/2021plus. Further information about SMPTE is available at smpte.org.
