This short talk will focus upon RIST for transporting your streams to and from a MegaVendor cloud such as Amazon or Azure. We expect you will want to process the stream in the cloud in some way, such as encoding it, then moving it out to somewhere else, such as to a CDN. In part one, we'll demonstrate compiling libRIST in Amazon EC2 using an Ubuntu image. In part two, we'll discuss two cost-saving strategies, one for Amazon and one for Azure. We will also provide a template to create and manage your own stream links using open source utilities.
