Open Visual Cloud

Build and Run the Transcode Sample on public cloud or local machine

The latest version of this document and other Transcode Sample documents can be found at the Github Wiki

The Open Visual Cloud is highly optimized for the latest Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors. Developers can use their own x86 development system to build, customize, and evaluate Open Visual Cloud reference pipelines, or use a public cloud to assess system scalability and performance.

1. Create a compute cluster consisting 1 nodes in the cloud.

 The above instance configurations should be able to support 4 clients in parallel.

2. Prerequisite

For AWS, run the following commands to install the software packages required to build the sample:

$ sudo yum update –y

$ sudo amazon-linux-extras install –y docker

$ sudo service docker start

$ sudo yum install –y cmake git

For Azure and GCP, follow https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/debian/ to install docker.ce. Run the following command to install cmake and git

$ sudo apt-get install –y cmake git

Initialize docker swarm as we will use docker swarm for deployment.

$ sudo docker swarm init

To add a worker to this swarm, run the following command:

docker swarm join --token SWMTKN-1-5zc7a41qkmlnkzp27a8yiplj8kdpyl2tovs318h3p3mjst8ju4-7m25p4wowiytut5wvdxjcqzho ip

3. Clone the Sample Source Code

Run the following command to clone the CDN-Transcode-Sample source code

4. Build the Sample

Run the following commands to build the CDN-Transcode-Sample.

$ cd CDN-Transcode-Sample
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ cd xcode-server/ffmpeg-sw
$ make 
$ cd cdn-server
$ make
$ cd deployment/docker-swarm
$ make

5. Start the Sample Service

$ make start_docker_swarm
