This guide has an accompanying reference implementation of an online, on-demand video system. The sample code illustrates how to implement a solution that leverages Microsoft Azure Media Services and a simple, custom CMS to provide streaming video to multiple clients.

  • This sample code is the reference implementation of an online, on-demand video system that illustrates how to design and architect a system leveraging Microsoft Azure Media Services and a simple Content Management System (CMS). The application stores data in an Azure SQL Database, Azure Blob Storage, and Azure Media Services. The application uses a Azure SQL Database as a simple CMS to store metadata related to videos that were processed by Azure Media Services. Various client applications can upload videos into the application through a REST service. The REST services interface with the CMS and Media Services to encode uploaded videos into a format suitable for adaptive streaming to compatible clients. The sample code then shows how to implement a video processing pipeline using Media Services and how to associate the results of this pipeline within a CMS for consumption.See the Readme (included with the download) for information about installing and configuring the reference implementation.
