Abstract
An alternative design is presented and analyzed for providing a just in time video such that even though multiple variants are advertised to a client, the bit streams need not be present. Instead, the videos are generated just in time when a client requests them. At a given time instant, only that video stream is generated which corresponds to the bit rate requested by the client and streams with other bit rates advertised in the manifest file are not generated. This saves storage cost and/or lowers the numbers of transcoders needed to generate full manifest file all the time. Two different architectures are presented and analyzed. Analysis of impacts of the encoding/transcoding speed on the behavior of such a system is presented and used in designing an optimal solution based on desired price and performance points.
