SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE & ENGINEERING BLUEPRINT

High-Availability Distributed Architecture

The XOUNOX streaming architecture takes satellite, SDI, and SRT live ingests and processes them through GPU-accelerated transcoding clusters (Nvidia NVENC/Intel QuickSync) into Adaptive Bitrate HLS, DASH, and sub-second WebRTC streams. Our carrier-grade IPTV Middleware coordinates subscriber management, channel line-ups, electronic program guides (EPG), time-shifted TV (Catch-up/nPVR), and studio-grade Multi-DRM encryption across all consumer endpoints.

Microservice Mesh

Independently scaling container clusters, Kubernetes orchestration, and zero-downtime blue/green rollouts.

Zero-Trust Security

End-to-end mTLS encryption, granular RBAC access control, and ISO 27001 auditability.
