Cloud and remote production workflows have changed the game for live streaming, enabling significant CapEx and OpEx reductions, making it possible to achieve the same results with smaller and more efficiently deployed and largely off-site crews, and reducing hardware footprints. But do all of the gains in operational efficiency that remote and distributed production provide come at the expense of real-time observability? It definitely brought new challenges on that end, according to Telestream’s Ken Haren, who explores these challenges and changes in best practices for software-defined observability and live stream diagnostics that have come with the shift to remote production in this discussion with Zixi’s Emeka Okoli and Eyevinn Technology’s Magnus Svensson at Streaming Media Connect 2026.
