  • Elastic Transcoder is a media Transcoder in cloud.
  • Converts the original media files into different formats which will be compatible with smartphones, tablets and PCs. It optimizes the source media file.
  • Provides transcoding presets for popular output formats, which means we don’t need to worry about which setting works best for devices.

  • How it works,
  • Upload the media file in the S3 bucket, Pass it to the lambda function, lambda function will invoke Elastic Transcoder.
  • Elastic Transcoders will then further process and convert it to different media format.
