Maverik X, a native AMPP (Agile Media Processing Platform) production switcher, is meticulously engineered to meet diverse user requirements while maintaining strict control over production costs. This innovative solution has been conceived from the ground up as a no-compromise, microservices-based software platform. Designed to operate seamlessly on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) servers, whether deployed on-premises or in the cloud, Maverik X is an ideal choice for modern production environments seeking flexibility and efficiency.
At its core, Maverik X is a highly flexible and scalable production switcher capable of expanding from very small to extremely large setups, depending on the needs of the production. Its scalability is underpinned by the robust AMPP platform, which further enhances Maverik X's versatility. This platform allows various other Software as a Service (SaaS) applications to run
on the same COTS servers, whether on-premises or in the cloud. These applications can be activated on a short-term or subscription basis, providing unprecedented flexibility in configuring complete production solutions. This adaptability empowers users to configure and activate production setups as needed, reconfigure them for different requirements, or deactivate them when no longer necessary. This dynamic approach not only reduces capital expenditures (capex) but also enables production costs to be allocated directly to specific productions as operational expenditures (opex). This shift from capex to opex offers a more efficient and cost-effective financial model, allowing organizations to better manage their budgets and scale their operations according to demand.

Maverik X supports a wide range of control options, including software-based GUI controls, third-party hardware control panels, and the familiar tactile modular hardware control panels of the Maverik series. This multi-interface approach caters to users' desire for familiar operating sequences and user interfaces while also providing the flexibility to use additional operating options for ad hoc applications without requiring dedicated hardware. This ensures that Maverik X can seamlessly integrate into existing workflows while offering the potential for innovation and customization. By accommodating various control interfaces and deployment configurations, Maverik X can adapt to the specific needs of different production environments, making it a versatile and powerful tool for content creation. Its ability to integrate seamlessly with other SaaS applications and COTS platforms further enhances its value, providing users with a
comprehensive production solution that can be scaled and customized as needed.

In summary, Maverik X is more than just a production switcher; it is a central element of a complete, scalable, and costeffective production solution. With its flexible deployment options, support for multiple interfaces, and integration with the AMPP platform, Maverik X empowers users to create high-quality content with greater efficiency and control. Whether used
on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid configuration, Maverik X is poised to revolutionize the way productions are managed and executed, offering unprecedented flexibility, scalability, and cost savings.
