Regarded by Media and Entertainment (M&E) as the standards-bearer for image quality, leading studios and streaming services rely on Dalet AmberFin for its high-quality, enterprise media processing to deliver the best possible viewing experience. In addition to the revised pricing, the latest updates continue to build on this reputation by bringing new codec support and elastic workflows to the platform.

Flexible Deployment Models and Limitless Scalability
The cloud-native Dalet AmberFin supports on-premises, cloud, and hybrid configurations. Clients can choose from a pay-per-use model as either Software-as-a-Solution (SaaS) deployment managed and hosted by Dalet or hosted on their own AWS infrastructure. Dalet also continues to offer on-premises nodes on a subscription-per-node basis.
Dalet AmberFin Cloud utilizes the same proprietary transcoding engine regardless of your deployment. Thus, existing Dalet AmberFin on-premise customers can augment existing deployments by utilizing the cloud for additional capacity and managing peak usage. The elastic processing power gives customers a new level of agility and limitless scalability.
Flexible Pricing
The new self-hosted pay-by-the-hour pricing has zero subscription fees and provides the lowest upfront and operational costs for customers who self-manage their cloud services. Depending on the use case, cloud deployments can save up to 50% over fixed on-premises nodes. Regardless of the deployment model, AmberFin provides the industry’s most flexible pricing and TCO to meet all budgets.
