NEW YORK—TAG Video Systems said today it is collaborating with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), establishing OCI as a certified infrastructure platform for deploying the full TAG monitoring suite, and will feature the collaboration during the 2026 NAB Show, April 18-22, at the Las Vegas Convention Center.at any scale.

"Our goal is to empower users to deploy their workflows on any cloud platform they choose, seamlessly integrating into their specific cloud or hybrid environments," said Golan Simani, director of cloud and tech operations at TAG Video Systems. "By adding OCI support, we are reinforcing our commitment to staying ahead of the pace of change, continuously evolving to support the new infrastructures and technologies our customers need to succeed."

OCI offers a free egress tier and bandwidth pricing that represents a departure from standard hyperscaler rates. Combined with deterministic network performance and flexible compute built for always-on broadcast workloads, OCI is well-suited to being home to mission-critical monitoring at scale.

"OCI is purpose-built for the performance and cost requirements that media and entertainment organizations demand. Working together with TAG means broadcast teams can now get world-class monitoring and quality control without compromising on infrastructure economics,” said Kip Schauer, who is responsible for media partnerships at OCI Media Services.

TAG's Realtime Media Platform is now deployed and certified on OCI. Work is also underway to bring the full TAG product portfolio to the platform. Broadcasters working with OCI will be able to count on a fully supported, production-validated monitoring stack that integrates natively into their OCI-based workflows.

The TAG Realtime Media Platform on OCI offers:

  • End-to-end IP-native signal visibility from ingest to playout on a cloud infrastructure designed for high-throughput media workloads.
  • Scalable, flexible compute that adapts to the bursty, always-on nature of live broadcast without overprovisioning or cost surprises.
  • A jointly supported deployment path, backed by TAG's integration expertise and OCI's enterprise infrastructure, for broadcasters migrating from legacy on-premises or alternative cloud environments.
