The Conundrum of the Edge

Monday, April 20 | noon – 12:30 p.m. | N261LMR

Broadcast Engineering and IT (BEIT) ConferenceAdd to My NAB Show

Media workflows are no longer centralized. Content is created, analyzed, and consumed everywhere — from stadiums and studios to remote production sites. The challenge? Massive volumes of data, AI-driven applications, zero tolerance for latency, and rising security demands. The edge is where this battle is won.

In this session, we’ll explore why processing data at the edge is essential for real-time production, audience personalization, operational efficiency, and secure content delivery. We’ll break down the core problem media organizations face — latency, bandwidth constraints, fragmented infrastructure, and data risk — and how an edge-first strategy turns these into competitive advantages.

Learn how Cisco Unified Edge delivers secure, high-performance compute and networking exactly where media happens — enabling faster decisions, simplified operations, stronger security, and better fan and viewer experiences.
