Abstract
An extensible resource manager (ERM) of a hybrid cloud-based media production system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a memory storing a resource management software code. The hardware processor executes the resource management software code to communicate with a network orchestrator of the hybrid cloud-based media production system to identify multicast production media flow(s) for processing in a cloud-based virtual production environment, to identify cloud-based resource(s) for processing cloud production media flow(s) corresponding to the multicast production media flow(s), in the cloud-based virtual production environment, and to determine whether a license exists for the identified cloud-based resource(s). The hardware processor also executes the resource management software code to obtain the license when the license does not exist, and to provision, after obtaining the license or in response to determining that the license exists, the cloud-based virtual production environment with the identified cloud-based resource(s).
