Vizrt delivers modern broadcast MAM demands with Viz One 8

Viz One 8 introduces a rebuilt containerized architecture backend — a powerful upgrade that makes media asset management more scalable, resilient, and upgradable 

Bergen, Norway | March 25th, 2025 | Vizrt, the leader in real-time graphics and live production solutions for content creators, today announces Viz One 8, the biggest update to its Enterprise Media Asset Management system in over a decade with a rebuilt containerized architecture backend. 
Through “containerization”, Viz One becomes a collection of small “containers” rather than one big system. Each container is responsible for its specific service and can function, scale, self-heal, and be updated independently. This makes the platform more flexible, scalable, resilient, and upgradable for mission-critical workflows, reduces operational costs, and improves performance during content ingest, editing, and distribution. 

A containerized architecture also provides more IT choice and flexibility by making it easier to deploy in an on-premises, cloud, or hybrid technology stack, simplifying integrations across different technology environments, and making MAM workflows more adaptable to diverse operational needs.

For the Netherlands Institute of Sound and Vision (NISV), this update will help achieve a significant milestone.

“We have a goal of upgrading our existing Viz One installation to make use of newer search and hybrid cloud technologies to improve how we serve content to our partners and the public. We’re excited to see what Viz One 8 can do for us,” Phillip Maher Head of IT and Development, NISV

Stay competitive with regular updates 

Upgrading MAM systems is traditionally a complex process and often sidelines broadcasters from benefitting from new features and innovations. Viz One 8 eliminates these roadblocks through its rebuilt container-based backend, helping broadcasters and content owners stay current and competitive by making future upgrades easy. 

Reducing downtime, complexity, and additional costs, Viz One 8 makes MAM more adaptable and efficient to better meet the asset management and archiving needs of today – and tomorrow. 

“As a 24/7 broadcaster, upgrading our MAM system has always been one of the biggest challenges. What we look forward to most with Viz One 8 is the possibility to upgrade more often, easily, and safely,” Florian Schimak IT Project Manager, ORF

Whether deploying the tools of the future for HDR, AI workflow integrations, or new global content standards, Viz One 8 will provide the platform needed to adapt effortlessly, while remaining competitive. 

Flexible, scalable, resilient 

Viz One 8 gives broadcasters and content owners a platform to innovate and quickly bring new features and workflows to life, keeping pace with the ever-evolving media landscape.

“This eagerly-anticipated release takes the MAM system our customers trust and rely on for their mission-critical operations to the next level – offering big gains in performance, reliability, upgradability, and a quicker and easier route to adopting cloud compute resources into their media asset management eco-system,” says James Scott, Engineering & Platform Manager, MAM Professional Services, Vizrt.

Don’t forget to include:
  • 1. Document Overview list view is handy to have open so you can see labeled areas indicating where some edits can be made
  • 2. Slug is the URL. Once you save a draft with a page title, it defaults to that unless you edit it. Editing the slug URL to be more concise is a benefit at times.
  • 3. Meta Description is an SEO-friendly description.
  • 4. Keyphrase Synonyms is where the bulk of your keywords will go. Separate each keyword or phrase with a comma. These are all supporting keywords to the Main Keyphrase (see item #7).
  • 5. Featured image: This is part of the meta-data and auto-populates any query card image on hub pages. Page Titles and Subheadings are also elements needed to populate query cards and metadata.
  • 6. Excerpt This auto-populates on query card text. If left empty, it will default to the first bit of text on the page. This can be the same as the Meta description.
  • 7. Focus Keyphrase is the main Keyword. The inputs for this and the supporting keywords are in slightly separate areas, making it a little confusing.
Special Instructions:
  • Don’t forget any Pardot form or ebook links needed for buttons and other links.
  • Make sure all items are turned on below page content:
    • Do Not Display Title
    • Do Not Display the Featured Image
    • Do Not Display Subtitle
    Starter templates: hide title, subtitles, and featured image
  • Remove Breadcrumbs. You are NOT expected to do this, but it does need to be done which is why it is always good to tag a web team member in Pardot to review a page prior to publishing. However, if you are an experienced user, there are instructions below. Add this CSS to the Kadence Blocks Controls > Page Scripts. See the Instruction gallery images below.
