amazon s3 - Is it advisable to use FFMpeg on my local server for video conversion? -

-

we starting video sharing website users able upload videos in native formats. however, since video streaming on web in flv format, need convert videos flv.

also, site hosted on amazon ec2 , storage using s3.

can run ffmpeg on amazon ec2 ? best way go ? there other alternatives video encoding rather doing conversion on our own server ? came across www.transloadit.com seems same charging bomb. there cheaper , more intelligent alternatives ?

we planning make website 1 of top 10 biggest niche video streaming websites on internet.

ec2 instances virtual machines can whatever on them, including running ffmpeg.

only can work out costs/benefits of doing conversion on ec2, server or encoding service encoding.com(a google search turn more services).

some thoughts:

ec2

  • pay hour , can add new servers (although need design process support multiple servers)
  • fast (and free) transfer between ec2 , s3

your own servers

  • you pay hardware upfront
  • not easy scale if needed
  • you need maintain hardware
  • bandwidth charges between ec2/s3 , servers

in both diy solutions need deal notoriously error prone process , converting videos of different formats.

video encoding service

  • probably more expensive (debatable if factor in development time , support costs)
  • easiest way scale quickly
  • up , running quickly
  • let them deal difficult conversions
