Brightcove - OpenText Content Storage Service Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between Brightcove and OpenText Content Storage Service

1. Centralized storage for video masters and mezzanine files

Data flow: Brightcove ? OpenText Content Storage Service

Store original video masters, high-bitrate mezzanine files, and archival copies in OpenText Content Storage Service while Brightcove handles delivery and playback. This creates a durable, compliant repository for source assets without overloading the video platform with long-term archive content.

• Reduces storage costs for large media libraries
• Supports retention and compliance requirements for source content
• Improves operational control for media, legal, and content operations teams

2. Automated backup of live event recordings

Data flow: Brightcove ? OpenText Content Storage Service

After a live stream ends, Brightcove can automatically transfer the recording, thumbnails, and related metadata to OpenText Content Storage Service for secure retention. This is useful for webinars, town halls, product launches, and broadcast events that must be archived for future reuse or audit purposes.

• Ensures event recordings are preserved in a governed storage layer
• Speeds up post-event publishing and internal sharing
• Supports compliance, legal hold, and internal knowledge reuse

3. Content lifecycle management for video libraries

Data flow: Bi-directional

Use OpenText Content Storage Service as the long-term repository for inactive or rarely accessed video assets, while Brightcove serves the active publishing layer. Metadata can be synchronized so content teams can locate archived assets in OpenText and republish selected videos back into Brightcove when needed.

• Moves older content to lower-cost storage without losing discoverability
• Helps content teams manage seasonal or campaign-based video libraries
• Improves governance across active and archived content

4. Secure storage for localized and versioned video assets

Data flow: Brightcove ? OpenText Content Storage Service

Organizations producing multiple versions of the same video, such as language variants, compliance edits, or region-specific cuts, can store all versions in OpenText Content Storage Service while Brightcove distributes the approved version to each audience. This is especially valuable for global marketing, training, and regulated industries.

• Maintains a controlled record of all approved versions
• Supports regional publishing and compliance review workflows
• Reduces duplication across disconnected file shares and local drives

5. Enterprise video asset repository for cross-team collaboration

• Shortens time from asset creation to audience delivery

6. Disaster recovery and content resilience for video operations

• Reduces recovery time for high-value content libraries

7. Compliance-ready retention for regulated video content
