Flow Engineering: Automated path calculation and flow setup across IP networks
Flow Engineering enables teams to design, automate, and manage media and data flows across IP‑based networks. It calculates the optimal route using real network topology and ensures flows are set up reliably across all required devices. This makes complex signal routing easier, faster, and far less error‑prone.
As part of the DataMiner xOps platform, Flow Engineering empowers organizations in broadcast, service provider, satellite, smart ecosystems, and defense to deliver high‑quality, network‑aware connectivity at scale.
Key benefits:
-
Optimized path calculation
Automatically determine the most efficient path for media or data flows using real network topology and connectivity information.
-
Automated flow execution
Configure every device along the calculated path automatically, ensuring consistent, predictable, and standards‑aligned flow setup.
-
Built‑in traceability
Document flow paths end‑to‑end for better visibility, monitoring, and faster troubleshooting when issues arise.
