Global Media Enterprise Reduces Streaming Test Content Fulfillment from 48 Hours to 90 Minutes with AWS

Leading global M&E enterprise

AWS Partner

Wizeline (Advanced Tier)

About the Customer

The customer is a leading global Media & Entertainment enterprise that operates large-scale streaming and broadcast platforms delivering live events, linear channels, and video-on-demand (VOD) content to millions of subscribers worldwide.

As a large-scale enterprise, the customer maintains extensive internal media and metadata ecosystems that underpin the full content supply chain — from ingest and scheduling through to packaging and distribution.

Customer Challenge

The customer relied on long-standing manual, fragmented processes for seeding and scheduling test content for QA and validation of live events, linear channels, and VOD content — creating heavy cross-team dependencies spanning QA, Content Programming, Operations, Engineering, and Product teams. 

48+ hours to fulfill a single test content request

4+ media engineers required per request, straining resources during high-volume events like live sports

Most test scenarios required expensive live encoders, even when encoder-free alternatives could suffice

No centralized test asset catalog, leading to duplicated effort and inconsistent QA practices

Partner Solution

Wizeline designed and built a self-service streaming test platform — a full-stack internal web application that automates the scheduling and management of test content across Linear, Live Events, and VOD. Any authorized team member can schedule test content, register assets, and trigger ad-hoc tests without requiring media engineering resources.

The platform is architected as a React frontend served via an NGINX load balancer, paired with a NestJS/Node.js backend. It integrates directly with the customer's media asset management (MAM) system via webhooks, and connects to the broader media metadata ecosystem for ingest event handling.

AWS Service

How It Was Used

AWS Service

Amazon Kinesis

How It Was Used

Powers encoder-less live and linear test streams, simulating live broadcast scenarios without physical encoder infrastructure.

AWS Service

Amazon RDS (PostgreSQL)

How It Was Used

Central relational data store for content entities, metadata taxonomies, and scheduling records — chosen over DynamoDB for complex relational queries.

AWS Service

Spinnaker (CI/CD)

How It Was Used

Manages independent deployment pipelines for the React frontend and Node.js backend across QA and staging environments.

Results & Benefits

Test content request fulfillment time dropped from over 48 hours to 90 minutes — a 97% reduction — while resources required per request fell from four-plus media engineers to zero, achieved through full self-service automation.
