More than a buzzword, microservices have become key to media solutions of today. However, like most hot trends, misunderstanding and assumptions tend to run rampant. Is this the panacea we have been seeking for decades? Will we finally be able to achieve custom solutions based on Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) components? Join us as we explore exactly what microservices are, what implications they hold for the media industry, and how SMPTE and others are solving the challenges of interoperability in this realm.
