AI-enriched ingestion pipelines for searchable live and VOD media on AWS
Media Blog
This article describes AI-enriched ingestion pipelines that make media content discoverable by analyzing what it contains rather than relying on manual metadata tagging.
- Extract video embeddings, audio embeddings, speech transcriptions, scene descriptions, and key moments during media ingestion
- Live pipeline processes HLS segments every 60 seconds using AWS Elemental MediaLive, Amazon Bedrock, and Amazon Transcribe in parallel
- AWS Elemental Inference detects editorially significant moments within 20-30 seconds of on-air occurrence
- VOD pipeline applies same AI analysis to uploaded files with 24-hour timeout for multi-hour content
- All enriched documents indexed to Amazon OpenSearch Service with multichannel embeddings for precise semantic search
- Idempotent processing with deterministic document IDs enables safe reprocessing without duplicates
The solution enables media organizations to search across live and VOD content simultaneously using natural language queries powered by AI-generated metadata and embeddings.
