Mediaproxy And Skyline Communications Integrate Systems For Improved Data Analysis

Mediaproxy already plays a central role in TV distribution with its LogServer compliance monitoring system and is now pushing into media data aggregation and orchestration through a growing technical partnership with Skyline Communications, developer of the DataMiner transformation platform.

The two manufacturers will each be demonstrating how the two systems can be integrated on their respective stands during IBC 2024 and discussing what it offers customers of both companies. Integration between LogServer and DataMiner first began in 2017 but was based around APIs and primarily focused on the data collection control panel of the Skyline system.

A closer and more formalized working relationship began approximately a year and a half ago when Mediaproxy's and Skyline's engineering teams started to collaborate on improving connectivity between their products. In addition to improving the integration between LogServer and DataMiner, the aim was to make the process of accessing using the data obtained from the interaction between the two systems much smoother.

DataMiner is a data acquisition, control and orchestration platform with a wide range of real-time monitoring and analytical capabilities, and includes artificial intelligence features such as forecasting, anomaly detection or automatic incident tracking. DataMiner Cloud Services enhance the DataMiner stack functions to provide secure dashboard and data sharing with external users, remote access or direct integration in Microsoft Teams. Being vendor-, protocol- and technology-agnostic, DataMiner’s data and control plane creates a digital twin of the entire infrastructure and operation.

In this way DataMiner is able to access information gathered by and recorded on to LogServer, such as what programs and commercials have been distributed on a particular network. This can then be aggregated to give broadcasters a full view of what is being transmitted and where it is being watched.
