Layercake Deploys End-to-End Broadcast and Digital Media Platform on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

This provides Layercake's customers with greater choice to help them drive innovation and digital excellence.

Streamcake enables media companies, broadcasters, sports organisations, and other live event producers to unify broadcast production, digital streaming, and operations automation on a single, highly scalable cloud platform. This makes it easier and more cost-effective for broadcasters and media companies to modernize live production, simplify content management and delivery, and enhance the quality and reliability of live and on-demand video experiences.

With Streamcake running on OCI, Layercake is able to expand its multicloud strategy and enable customers to leverage the high performance, scalability, and security of OCI for their software-defined video workflows, including livestreams, video-on-demand generation, and publishing.

The Streamcake solution provides the following capabilities:

·       Broadcast media production powered by Grass Valley's GV Agile Media Processing Platform (AMPP) and integrated into OCI.

·       Digital media production and streaming through flexible platforms such as Ant Media and Bitmovin, orchestrated by Streamcake.

·       Smart orchestration and automation that provides compute, storage, networking, software, monitoring, captions, AI/ML overlays, and monetisation workflows.

With this approach, broadcasters and content owners gain cloud-native agility, predictable cost models, and global scalability, while eliminating the complexity traditionally associated with multi-vendor broadcast and streaming workflows.

"Media organisations are under pressure to deliver broadcast-quality content at digital speed and scale," said Padraig O'Donovan, CEO of Layercake. "Streamcake not only modernises production workflows but also unlocks new commercial models for broadcasters, sports leagues, and digital platforms worldwide. We are pleased to partner with Oracle to offer our customers new ways to host their media workflows."

"Content is king and media companies are moving faster than ever to cloud-based production and automation to stay ahead," said Chris Chelliah, senior vice president, Technology, Oracle Japan and Asia-Pacific. "Through our collaboration with Layercake, we are helping customers take advantage of OCI's price performance, scalability, and security to monetize their live and on-demand media workflows."

A Platform for the Future of Media
Starting today, customers can choose to integrate media workloads on OCI through Streamcake, which is already gaining strong traction among leading media companies across Asia Pacific, Europe, and North America. With global sports rights holders, broadcasters, and digital platforms embracing multi-cloud strategies, the combination of Layercake and OCI offers a powerful pathway to flexible, cloud-native media operations.
