Abstract

Systems, methods and articles of manufacture for transcoding media content. Embodiments include receiving a request to perform a transcoding operation on a first instance of media content. The transcoding operation is divided into a plurality of sub-operations. Embodiments select one of a plurality of transcoding profiles for use in performing the transcoding operation. Additionally, embodiments configure a plurality of virtual machine instances to perform the plurality of sub-operations, based on configuration information specified within the selected transcoding profile. Execution of the plurality of sub-operations is initiated using the configured plurality of virtual machine instances to produce a plurality of encoded fragments. Embodiments then combine the plurality of encoded fragments to produce an encoded instance of media content.
