About the Client

Huddle is an innovative platform in the education sector, providing tools and resources for schools to create, manage, and deliver interactive learning experiences. With a focus on student engagement and content accessibility, Huddle enables educators to efficiently manage their curriculum and video content, providing a seamless learning environment for schools and educational institutions worldwide.

Client Challenge

Huddle faced significant challenges in managing and processing large volumes of video content for their platform. The manual workflows for video processing, including thumbnail generation and video optimization, were time-consuming and prone to errors, resulting in delays and inefficiencies. If left unaddressed, these inefficiencies risked slowing down content delivery, increasing operational costs, and ultimately affecting user experience and platform scalability.

Partner Solution

Dudobi worked closely with Huddle to design and implement a serverless video processing pipeline using AWS Lambda. The solution automates the process of generating video thumbnails and transcoding videos for optimal performance on Amazon CloudFront. When a video is uploaded to Amazon S3, an event triggers AWS Lambda functions that pre-process the video content and optimise it for streaming. This solution eliminates the need for manual intervention, streamlines video processing, and ensures fast and reliable content delivery.

By leveraging AWS Lambda, Amazon S3, and CloudFront, Dudobi was able to create a scalable, cost-effective, and highly efficient serverless architecture for Huddle. The solution included automated deployment measures which ensured continuous integration and seamless updates, reducing operational overhead and ensuring consistency across environments. The workflow automation also saved Huddle significant time and resources, allowing them to focus on delivering high-quality educational content to their users.

Results and Benefits

As a result of the AWS-powered solution, Huddle was able to reduce video processing time by 70%. The automation of thumbnail creation and video transcoding drastically improved workflow efficiency, saving Huddle valuable operational hours. Additionally, the solution’s scalability and cost-effectiveness allowed Huddle to handle an increasing volume of video content without the need for additional infrastructure, reducing operational costs by 50% and enhancing global content delivery performance.
