Overview

Elemental™ Server is a massively parallel video processing system that provides fast, high-quality, and highly efficient video transcoding using graphics processing units (GPUs). Ideal for broadcasters, studios, online video platforms and any other video transcoding application, Elemental Server is significantly more cost-effective than other solutions. The system is easy to install, configure and maintain with REST/XML interfaces for fast integration into existing workflows.

By harnessing the power of multiple GPUs, it offers faster than real-time transcoding even for multiple simultaneous 1080p streams. Elemental Server merges the performance benefits of a massively parallel hardware platform with the flexibility and forward compatibility of traditional software solutions to give video publishers unmatched price/performance for video transcoding.

By combining GPU and CPU processing one Elemental Server replaces up to seven dual quad core 3GHz CPU-only servers.

Experience the Benefits

  • Industry Leading Price/Performance – Lower encoding costs significantly by achieving the performance of more than 14 quad-core CPUs in a highly cost-efficient single 2RU system, as well as reducing space and energy consumption. 
  • Easy Integration with Existing Workflows – Install and integrate encoding servers quickly and easily without the complicated problems of other video processing systems. 
  • Scalable Architecture – Easily scale server farms by combining multiple Elemental Servers with a shared job queue that automatically distributes encoding jobs. 
  • Uncompromised Video Quality – Deliver the highest quality encoding for H.264, VC-1 and MPEG-2 with cutting edge encoding algorithms. 
  • High Transcoding Throughput – Transcode up to eight high-definition videos simultaneously in real time or 32 480x270 videos in real time.
