Nevion launches first applications for MOXELA software-based media processing platform
New contribution over unmanaged networks and GCCG transport applications also mark general availability of MOXELA
Oslo, Norway, 3 September, 2026 – Nevion, a Sony Group Company, today announced today the general availability of MOXELA, its next-generation software-based media processing platform, together with the first applications developed on the platform. A key component of Sony’s Networked Live ecosystem initially announced at NAB Show 2026, MOXELA is designed to help broadcasters, production companies and media organizations transport, process and monitor live video, audio and data using software running on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) servers or in the cloud.
The first MOXELA applications address two important live production use cases: contribution over unmanaged networks and ground-to-cloud (GCCG) transport. Nevion is also announcing initial support for software-defined broadcasting (SDB) workflows, enabling media organizations to build more agile, scalable and infrastructure-independent live production environments.
The new applications are built using media functions developed on the MOXELA platform. These media functions include a range of video and audio compression, such as H.265/HEVC, H.264/AVC, NDI and AAC; logo insertion; and audio matrix routing, including embedding, de-embedding and shuffle. The media functions can be deployed in the cloud or on-premises on COTS servers, giving customers the flexibility to choose the infrastructure model that best fits their operational and commercial requirements.
“The general availability of MOXELA and the launch of our first applications are important milestones in the move toward software-defined live production,” said Cezary Cieslewski, Product Manager, MOXELA at Nevion. “By combining low latency, high resilience, efficient CPU/GPU usage, flexible deployment on COTS or cloud infrastructure, strong security and open standards, MOXELA gives media organizations the freedom to create more efficient, scalable, secure and future-ready workflows without being locked into a specific infrastructure model.”
MOXELA incorporates the latest technologies, standards and industry best practices for software-based media processing. The platform is aligned with the EBU Dynamic Media Facilities (DMF) concept and supports Media eXchange Layer (MXL), the emerging standard for real-time exchange of media between software applications. MOXELA’s interoperability with other MXL-compliant software was demonstrated at NAB Show 2026 on the AWS booth, highlighting its open, standards-based approach to multi-vendor software-defined production. MOXELA is also natively integrated with Nevion’s VideoIPath media orchestration platform, simplifying the control, orchestration, virtualization and monitoring of workflows across hybrid (ground and cloud) operations, across both software and hardware resources. This integration helps customers manage hybrid production environments more efficiently while reducing deployment complexity, risk and vendor lock-in.
These first applications represent the beginning of Nevion’s MOXELA roadmap, with additional applications and media functions planned to follow soon.
MOXELA will be on show on the Sony booth (13.A10) at IBC 2026 in Amsterdam, 11-14 September. MOXELA will also be part of an MXL interop demonstrations on the AWS booth (5.C90).
About Networked Live
Sony and Nevion’s Networked Live is an ecosystem of solutions, products, services, and partners that combines hybrid on-premises and Cloud processing with network connectivity to transform the logistics and economics of high-quality mission critical live production. It does this by enabling resources (places, people, and processing) to be connected, used, and shared optimally and seamlessly in productions – regardless of their locations.
