This project provides integration of Kaltura CE with Microsoft Azure Media Services. Integration between Kaltura Server and Microsoft Azure makes it possible to move the storage and encoding of media to the Microsoft Azure platform. For instance, a video or audio file that has been uploaded to KMC, can then be transmitted to Microsoft Azure Media Services and encoded. Kaltura player can also pull media content directly from Microsoft Azure, significantly decreasing the network and operational load on the Kaltura Server.

You may use ready-to-run VM Image from VM Depot on Microsoft Azure. Follow the instructions from “Uploading an Image from VM Depot” and “Create a VM Instance” sections at Installation Manual to set up VM at Microsoft Azure.

Or you may prepare developer environment yourself. Follow the instructions from the “Create Developer Machine” below.

Repository contains the installer of Kaltura CE 6 with integrated Microsoft Azure support. So to get fresh copy of distribution please perform the following steps:

1. Install git client if needed

   sudo yum install git
   

2. Clone this repository to your VM

   cd ~/
   git clone https://github.com/Akvelon2014/Media-Management-based-on-Kaltura.git
   sudo chmod -R 0777 Media-Management-based-on-Kaltura
   

3. Run installation script

   cd Media-Management-based-on-Kaltura/InstallationPackage/kaltura-installer
   sudo php install.php
   

4. Follow the instructions from “Installation process” section of Installation Manual

When the steps above are completed, you are ready to go to Kaltura server. Please find

• Admin Console at http(s)://<your domain>/admin_console
• Kaltura Management Console (KMC) at http(s)://<your domain>

First steps to go:

• Create Media Service at Microsoft Azure Portal.
• Create a publisher for access KMC at Admin Console.
• Input Media Service credentials at publisher configure form (or KMC Account Settings form).

Kaltura server source files are located at /opt/kaltura by default. You can change the scripts located there if needed for debugging.

Noteworthy that Kaltura installer generates some files during installation process. So please apply your changes to installer folder InstallationPackage/kaltura-installer/package/app. Than try to install server on the clean machine. Check if all your changes are in place. And commit changes after that.

KMC is implemented in flash. So Kaltura server contains only flash binaries.

You can find KMC source code at KMC folder of the repository. Compile KMC with your changes and put binaries to web/flash/kmc/v5.23.2 folder of your server.

KDP is implemented in flash. So Kaltura server contains only flash binaries.

You can find KDP source code at KDP folder of the repository. Compile KDP with your changes and put binaries to web/flash/kdp3/v3.6.11 folder of your server.

Kaltura Management Console Login is implemented in flash. So Kaltura server contains only flash binaries.

You can find Kaltura Management Console Login source code at KMC-LOGIN folder of the repository. Compile kmc-login with your changes and put binaries to web/flash/kmc/login/v1.2.2 folder of your server.

Perform following steps to create machine for development:

1. Install CentOS 6 x64 (“Minimal” variation is enough)

2. Install additional packages:

   sudo yum update
   sudo yum install git wget dos2unix php-cli php-mysql php-gd \
   mysql-server memcached httpd mailx ImageMagick \
   php-pecl-apc php-pecl-memcache php-xml cronie java-1.6.0-openjdk 
   sudo yum --enablerepo=centosplus install mod_php
   

3. Edit /etc/selinux/config and change SELINUX=enforcing to SELINUX=disabled.

4. Reboot system

5. Setup PHP and MySQL

   cp /etc/php.ini php.ini.apache.backup
   sed -e "s/^request_order = \"GP\"/request_order = \"CGP\"/g" \
   /etc/php.ini > /tmp/php.ini.configured && \
   sudo cp /tmp/php.ini.configured /etc/php.ini
   

   cp /etc/my.cnf my.cnf.backup
   sed -e "s/^thread_stack\t\t= 192K/thread_stack\t\t= 256K/g" \
   /etc/my.cnf > /tmp/my.cnf.configured && \
   sudo cp /tmp/my.cnf.configured /etc/my.cnf
   

   sed -e "s/^\[mysqld\]/\[mysqld\]\nlower_case_table_names = 1/g" \
   /etc/my.cnf > /tmp/my.cnf.configured && \
   sudo cp /tmp/my.cnf.configured /etc/my.cnf
   

6. Insure that /etc/my.cnf has this lines

   lower_case_table_names = 1
   thread_stack = 262144
   open_files_limit = 20000
   

7. Uncomment at /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf line:

   LoadModule filter_module modules/mod_filter.so

8. Make Services Start at Boot

   sudo service mysqld restart
   sudo chkconfig --level 2345 mysqld on
   sudo service mysqld start
   sudo chkconfig --level 2345 httpd on
   sudo service httpd start
   

9. Turn off iptables

   sudo service iptables stop
   sudo chkconfig iptables off
   

10. Install Pentaho

sudo mkdir /usr/local/pentaho
cd /usr/local/pentaho
sudo wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/pentaho/files/Data%20Integration/4.2.1-stable/pdi-ce-4.2.1-stable.tar.gz
sudo tar xzf pdi-ce-4.2.1-stable.tar.gz
sudo mv data-integration pdi

11. Now your machine is ready. Download source code and enjoy Media Management based on Kaltura.
