Platform as Art: A Developer's Perspective

Event SXSW Interactive 2009
Format Solo
Organizer Ashley Streb Brightcove
Description Media educates, inspires, informs and enables us to communicate with one another in deep and meaningful ways. By leveraging the Adobe technology stack, Brightcove has created an open, on-demand platform that is used to create media-centric experiences that touch hundreds of millions of users. This platform will examine the challenges of creating a "platform" that can scale to handle billions of transactions as well as a "platform" for developers to extend and enhance.
