The Rhozet Workflow System (WFS) is an open and extensible task-based engine ideal for managing video centric workflows. Rhozet WFS enables control of multiple Carbon Coder nodes configured as a transcoding farm. The distributed nature of WFS allows for automated processing of high-volume transcoding tasks, failover support, managing job distribution, job prioritization, load balancing, FTP transfer, status monitoring, and job notification.

With an extensive API, Rhozet WFS can manage the complete video asset transformation process by integrating additional 3rd Party and Harmonic processing nodes. With the integration of Rhozet Quality Control System (QCS), our automated quality control engine, customers can add automated and scalable video verification processes to their transcoding farm. Rhozet WFS enables enterprise transcoding solutions with maximum flexibility, scalability and cross-vendor interoperability.
