A system and method for providing load balanced secure media content and data delivery (10) in a distributed computing environment is disclosed. Media content is segmented and encrypted into a set of individual encrypted segments on a centralized control center (15). Each individual encrypted segment has the same fixed size. The complete set of individual encrypted segments is staged to a plurality of intermediate control nodes (17, 19). Individual encrypted segments are mirrored from the staged complete set to a plurality of intermediate servers (21a-b, 23a-b). Requests are received from clients (11) for the media content at the centralized control center. Each individual encrypted segment in the set is received from one of an intermediate control node and an intermediate server optimally sited from the requesting client. The individual encrypted segments are reassembled into the media content for media playback.

A system comprising a plurality of peer caches associated with a corresponding plurality of content owners; shared ledger logic having a channel for each content owner of a plurality of content owners, the shared ledger logic to maintain a shared ledger data structure and to perform the operations of: in response to receipt of a first content title, responsively recording a first ledger entry for the first content title which is visible to a first content owner which owns the first content title; receiving an encryption key from the content owner, wherein the first content title comprises an encrypted content title encrypted with the key; storing the encrypted content title on one or more network storage devices; and when the encrypted content title reaches an edge cache, using the key to decrypt the encrypted content title and updating the first ledger entry to identify the edge cache.

In some embodiments, infrastructure data and service data is received for a computing infrastructure. The infrastructure data indicates resources in the computing infrastructure, and the service data indicates services to be orchestrated across the computing infrastructure. An infrastructure capacity model is generated, which indicates a capacity of the computing infrastructure over a particular time window. Service-to-resource placement options are also identified, which indicate possible placements of the services across the resources over the particular time window. Resource inventory data is obtained, which indicates an inventory of resources that are available to add to the computing infrastructure during the particular time window. An infrastructure capacity plan is then generated, which indicates resource capacity allocation options over the time slots of the particular time window. Resource capacities for the services are then allocated in the computing infrastructure.

A gateway device is provided. The gateway device comprises a plurality of RF transceivers. Each RF transceiver is for providing a network connection between the gateway device and a corresponding wireless communication network in a plurality of wireless communication networks. The gateway device comprises a processor for receiving raw video recorded by a video camera connected to the gateway device, receiving an identification of a set of one or more destination devices to receive a livestream video from the gateway device, determining a quality of the network connections between the gateway device and the plurality of wireless communication networks, selecting a wireless communication network with a highest quality network connection for communicating with the set of destination devices, encoding the raw video into a compressed video stream, and livestreaming the compressed video stream to the set of destinations devices through the RF transceiver corresponding to the selected wireless communication network.

Embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a system comprising a client source device, a server, and a client viewing device. The client source device may be configured to: encode content as a plurality of fragments of at least one quality parameter, send each encoded fragment to a cloud storage, generate metadata associated with each encoded fragment, and provide the generated metadata associated with each encoded fragment. The server may be configured to: receive each encoded fragment, store each encoded fragment into the cloud storage for retrieval, and facilitate an authentication for access to the metadata associated with each encoded fragment. A client viewing device configured to request the authentication for access to the metadata, receive the metadata, determine a desired fragment of the plurality of fragments encoded in a desired quality parameter, and retrieve the desired fragment in the desired quality parameter.

The present disclosure relates to a method and system for presenting a set of control functions via an interface of a peripheral control device (PCD). A control function can include a command associated with one or more media contexts of a host media device. The method decodes a payload, from the host media device, with an encoded context identifier, where the context identifier indicates a primary media context active on the host media device. The method determines one or more control functions corresponding to the context identifier, and changes the set of control functions on the interface of the PCD to include the one or more control functions that can command the primary media context.

A video live broadcast method and an apparatus, where when a regional node receives a video request from a video playing client but does not have a corresponding video stream, information about a regional node that has the video stream is learned by searching the live broadcast record table, and then a stream is pulled from the regional node.

A system comprising a plurality of peer caches associated with a corresponding plurality of content owners; shared ledger logic having a channel for each content owner of a plurality of content owners, the shared ledger logic to maintain a shared ledger data structure and to perform the operations of: in response to receipt of a first content title, responsively recording a first ledger entry for the first content title which is visible to a first content owner which owns the first content title; receiving an encryption key from the content owner, wherein the first content title comprises an encrypted content title encrypted with the key; storing the encrypted content title on one or more network storage devices; and when the encrypted content title reaches an edge cache, using the key to decrypt the encrypted content title and updating the first ledger entry to identify the edge cache.
