What gets delivered

Everything you need to treat video ingestion like a production dataset delivery.

Video files + thumbnails

Video files as scoped, plus thumbnails for downstream processing and indexing.

Metadata + transcripts

Structured metadata and transcripts where available, aligned to a stable manifest schema.

Hashes + manifests

SHA-256 hashes and JSONL/CSV manifests for auditability and reproducible pipelines.

When direct cloud delivery matters

If your pipelines already run in cloud storage, direct bucket handoff reduces rework and risk.

Data team handoff

No extra staging environment. Data lands where your ETL, labeling, and training jobs already run.

Repeatable directory layout

A stable folder structure makes dataset refreshes and downstream automation predictable.

Auditability

Hashes + manifests + delivery reporting support governance and internal review.

Example output structure

A simple layout designed for data pipelines. Exact paths are confirmed during scoping.

Example

Notes
  • • Manifests can be JSONL or CSV.
  • • Hashes are included for integrity and auditability.
  • • Directory conventions can match your existing pipeline.

Bucket handoff at a glance

The useful part is not just the media file. It is the package structure that downstream jobs can consume without extra prep work.

  • JSONL or CSV manifest for pipeline intake
  • SHA-256 hashes for file-level integrity checks
  • Metadata and transcripts stored beside the video assets
Best fit

Teams that already operate ETL, analytics, labeling, or model workflows in cloud storage and want clean handoff into their existing bucket structure.

Delivery targets

Direct handoff into your infrastructure.

Amazon S3

Deliver into your S3 bucket using IAM credentials you control and can rotate.

Google Cloud Storage

Deliver into your GCS bucket using scoped credentials and clear handoff.

Azure Blob Storage

Deliver into Azure storage with an agreed directory layout and manifest schema.

S3 vs GCS vs Azure notes

Delivery is always into your environment. Implementation details depend on your security model.

S3

Bucket + prefix layout agreed up front. You control IAM permissions and can rotate access.

GCS

Deliver into your GCS bucket with a scoped directory layout and manifest conventions.

Azure

Deliver into your storage account/container with agreed paths and schema.

Credential handling (high level)

We align with least-privilege access patterns and your security requirements during scoping.

Least privilege

Access is scoped to the specific bucket/container paths needed for delivery.

Customer-controlled credentials

You control credentials and rotation. Exact setup depends on your cloud and policy.

FAQ

Cloud delivery questions

Can you deliver directly to our S3 bucket?

Yes. S3 delivery is a default option, scoped during the brief.

Do you support GCS and Azure too?

Yes. We support S3, GCS, and Azure deliveries (and SFTP when needed).

What format is the manifest?

JSONL or CSV. Custom schemas can be scoped for larger workloads.

Do you include hashes?

Yes. SHA-256 hashes are included to support integrity checks and auditability.
