Amagi CLOUDPORT Launches Largest Platform Upgrade, Boosting Broadcast Scale and Resiliency
Amagi, the Emmy® Award-winning media technology company, announced a landmark advancement to its Amagi CLOUDPORT platform, positioning the cloud-native solution as a comprehensive tool for modern broadcast workflows. The upgrades aim to elevate broadcast infrastructure, moving the platform beyond simple cloud migration to fundamentally reengineer core playout operations for linear TV, FAST, and live event broadcasters.The upgraded platform significantly enhances scale and resilience, now supporting over 100 concurrent feeds. It provides 200-player multi-AZ redundancy within a single tenant, facilitating large-scale, distributed deployments with consistent performance. Amagi stated that the company has shipped over 250 features in FY25-26.
Enhanced Operations and Security
A major addition is Amagi Monitoring, a proactive platform designed specifically for CLOUDPORT deployments. This tool anticipates and mitigates operational risks before they impact on-air output by surfacing missing assets, ingest failures, audio misconfigurations, and delivery anomalies. Since late 2025, Amagi Monitoring has helped avert over 80% of potential disruption scenarios.Security remains foundational, with the platform achieving SOC 2 Type II certification for the second consecutive year, confirming robust controls across infrastructure, access, and data protection.
Resiliency and Performance Engineering
Amagi CLOUDPORT is built for high availability, engineered for 99.999% uptime. Its resiliency is deeply embedded across multiple layers:- Network Level: Support for SMPTE ST 2022-7 enables hitless protection switching for RTP-based workflows, ensuring continuous playout even during network failures.
- Infrastructure Level: The platform utilizes Active-Active multi-region redundancy and multi-availability-zone deployments, eliminating single points of failure. Furthermore, an on-premises Disaster Recovery Box provides localized continuity with support for up to 72 hours of survivability.
Modernizing Broadcast Workflows
The platform reimagines the broadcast user experience (UX), shifting the paradigm from static control to adaptive, operator-centric workflows. A key feature is the implementation of a new show-level playlist editing and publishing capability, enabling playlist publishing approximately 70% faster. The unified interface consolidates multi-channel operations, featuring a horizontal timeline view for proactive conflict management and supporting 16-channel synchronized playout.In terms of advanced performance and viewer experience, the platform integrates several critical features:
| Feature | Improvement / Standard | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Latency | Ultra-low-latency JPEG-XS workflows | Reduces transmission lag by up to 1.3 seconds for live sports and interactive viewing. |
| Video/Audio Support | 4K HDR 10-bit video and Dolby Atmos audio | Ensures premium, cinematic fidelity across HDR10 and HLG formats. |
| Accessibility | Google Speech-to-Text V2 | Provides real-time AI captioning and translation. |
| Graphics | Enhanced HTML-triggered graphics automation | Supports precise, production-grade on-air presentation at scale. |
The platform also strengthens its cloud-native foundation through deep integration with AWS, utilizing next-generation compute instances and Amazon EKS. Infrastructure optimizations, including Karpenter-based autoscaling and migrating to GP3 storage, improve resource efficiency and deployment agility.
