Devices

MK.IO supports the use of MediaKind software running on on-prem equipment by allowing the equipment to be registered within the platform. Once registered, the software can be monitored and controlled from MK.IO, simplifying and centralizing the management of MediaKind appliances and servers hosting MediaKind software.

The registration of on-prem equipment is handled through device resources.

A Device refers to a VM or bare-metal server running MediaKind media processing software that is registered for control by MK.IO. The device can be either a pre-installed MediaKind appliance or a COTS server. Devices are added to on-prem sites within your organization.
