video-trans
Family introduction:
Dedicated hardware resources and physical isolation
High-density transcoding. For example, the hardware supports 84 streams for 1080p resolution, 30 FPS, and the HEVC encoding format.
Support for mainstream H.264 and H.265 streams. The maximum supported resolution is 8192 × 4096.
Equipped with ASIC transcoding accelerators for video transcoding applications. This greatly improves transcoding speed and reduces costs.
Scenarios:
Video format and stream conversion
Image and video content processing
Fetching frame images for image recognition
Compute: Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8269CY (Cascade Lake) processor with a 2.5 GHz clock speed and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. This processor provides stable computing performance.
Storage:
Supported disk types: enterprise SSDs (ESSDs), ESSD AutoPL disks, regional ESSDs, standard SSDs, and ultra disks. For more information about disks, see Elastic Block Storage overview.
