Cloud workflows: MediaLab


MediaLab is a cloud-based platform that provides a unified control layer for media operations — covering upload, review, approval, storage, automation and secure distribution workflows. It is used by broadcasters including BBC Studios, RTL and VRT, and supports flexible deployment across cloud, hybrid and on-premises environments.

This one-hour introductory session gave EBU Members an opportunity to get to know MediaLab's platform and explore its relevance to public service media workflows. The focus was on getting a clear picture of the product, its architecture and how Members currently use it. MediaLab was  represented by Hans de Heus and Peter Lalonde.
