The Ultimate Viewer Experience depends on delivering seamless, high-quality experiences. With the impending sunset of AWS MediaStore on November 13, 2025, content providers face the challenge of finding a reliable and efficient solution for live video origination and low-latency data workflows. Momento Media Storage has emerged as a compelling option, offering the performance, scalability, and reliability needed to deliver the Ultimate Viewer Experience.

This blog explores why Momento Media Storage is a great choice for those currently relying on AWS MediaStore.

The Evolving Landscape of Live Streaming

Live streaming is a cornerstone of modern entertainment, education, and communication. Consumers have more choices than ever – and content providers have no choice but to innovate towards a seamless, high-quality experience. To achieve the Ultimate Viewer Experience, platforms must minimize buffering, maximize video quality, ensure consistent latency performance, and provide consistent performance even during periods of peak demand.

Momento Media Storage builds upon the Momento Cache, which is already in production for many Media and Entertainment and Gaming companies. Like AWS Elemental MediaStore, Momento Media Storage adds the ability to intelligently tier content into longer-term storage based on S3. This provides the best of both worlds with RAM cache for live origination and object-based storage for VOD origination.

Momento: Engineered for the Ultimate Viewer Experience

Momento Media Storage is designed to overcome the limitations of traditional object-based storage for live origination. Momento Media Storage delivers superior performance and reliability by addressing issues like high read and write error rates, long tail latencies, and the lack of auto-partitioning.

Key benefits include:

• Unparalleled Speed: RAM-based cache and intelligent data storage deliver consistently fast response times, especially for frequently accessed content.
• Seamless Scalability: Effortlessly handles traffic surges, ensuring a smooth viewing experience during peak times.
• Enhanced Reliability: Deep instrumentation allows Momento to identify and automatically resolve issues before they impact viewers.
• Cost-Effective Storage: Momento’s intelligent data storage tier system ensures efficient data storage based on content lifecycle, minimizing unnecessary costs.

Taking Your Viewer Experience to the Next Level

The end of AWS MediaStore support doesn’t have to be a setback in your customers’ viewing experience. In fact, it’s an opportunity to upgrade your infrastructure with a future-proof, high-performance solution. Momento Media Storage delivers the speed, reliability, and scalability you need to deliver the Ultimate Viewer Experience and expert support to make the move from AWS Elemental MediaStore as smooth as possible.
