Streaming Media Service Requirements

Project ID: 
259
Current stage: 
Manager: 
What: 

Description: Investigate the needs of users and the requirements necessary to provide an operational Streaming Media service, as a precursor to implementation (Project 227).

Deliverables: A clarification of what is required by users of a Streaming Media service, an assessment of viability, and a list of functional requirements that would need to be implemented.

Why: 

Customer:

Case statement: Though there is a central, IS, provided service, which would continue to be used for larger scale events. Something smaller and simpler for use in-house would be useful - and in order to implement this, a functional specification is required.

When: 

Status:

Timescales: estimate 1 week.

Priority: Not enormously high - but it does, in theory, block project 227.

Time:

How: 

Proposal: We need to know what were committing ourselves to in implementing a Streaming Media service, what's feasible, and how this sits with what users are actually asking for.

Resources:

Plan:


  • Establish current and prospective user base.
  • Consult with user base to establish current usage and performance.
  • Investigate current levels of service provided in-house and by IS.
  • Establish required functionality, based on user feedback. Clarify and refine as appropriate.
  • Draft initial requirements list and solicit user feedback.
  • Prepare final requirements list.
