Automatic migration to Bitmovin

  • Članek

Important

This doesn't apply to China regions.

One of our Azure partners, Bitmovin, allows you to stream AMS content without changing the streaming URLs until June 30, 2025. To automatically migrate to Bitmovin, subscribe to the Bitmovin Streams product from the Azure Marketplace and then follow the instructions provided in the Bitmovin portal.

Prerequisites

To successfully migrate AMS content streaming to Bitmovin, ensure the following requirements are met:

  1. Digital Rights Management (DRM) protection for streaming (FairPlay, PlayReady, or Widevine) isn't being used.
  2. Content Distribution Network (CDN) is enabled for your streaming endpoints.

Details

After you grant the necessary permissions to Bitmovin, the migration process copies information about AMS assets using the AMS APIs. Bitmovin then provisions resources that provide the equivalent functionality as your AMS streaming endpoint.

You can verify that Bitmovin can stream your content by loading Bitmovin's streaming URLs in your existing media player. To construct these URLs, replace the hostname portion of your AMS streaming URLs with Bitmovin's origin hostname.

Once you verify that streaming works as expected, update the CDN endpoint's origin in the Azure portal. This change requests data from Bitmovin's origin instead of the AMS streaming endpoint. Once complete, all existing streaming URLs are preserved. These URLs will continue to work until June 30, 2025.
