Amazon IVS Introduces Thumbnails Recording for Real-Time Streaming

Starting today, you can record thumbnail images in Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) Real-Time Streaming. When thumbnail recording is enabled, Amazon IVS automatically generates images at the interval you configure and stores them in the Amazon S3 bucket you select. Thumbnails can be used for preview images in content discovery or as part of content moderation workflows. There is no additional cost for enabling thumbnail recording, but standard Amazon S3 storage and request costs apply.

Amazon IVS is a managed live streaming solution that is designed to make low-latency or real-time video available to viewers around the world. Video ingest and delivery are available over a managed network of infrastructure optimized for live video. Visit the AWS region table for a full list of AWS Regions where the Amazon IVS console and APIs for control and creation of video streams are available.
