Abstract
In one embodiment, a system includes a first subsystem that includes components configured to route video to transcoder instances for transcoding. The first subsystem includes a first host CPU configured to coordinate routing of first IP packets including video through a first routing system to the transcoder instances. The system also includes a second subsystem that includes components configured to route video to transcoder instances for transcoding. The second subsystem includes a second host CPU configured to coordinate routing of second IP packets including video through a second routing system to the transcoder instances. A redundancy connection connects the first subsystem and the second subsystem together to allow routing of the first IP packets or the second IP packets from the one of first subsystem and the second subsystem through the other of the first subsystem and the second subsystem.
