In April, Lawo debuted HOME, an innovative management platform for IP based media
infrastructures. HOME is natively built on a cloud-ready microservices architecture, enabling
users to connect, manage and secure networked production setups from the ground up.
Furthermore, it provides centralized access and control for all Lawo gear within a setup. HOME
helps broadcast professionals address some of the most demanding requirements of modern IP infrastructures, including automated discovery and registration of devices, connection
management, flow control, software & firmware management, scalability and security.
HOME features: Discovery and Registration (IP complexity solved with automatic plug & play
discovery of IP audio and video devices), Device Management (speedy, unified device
configuration routines; save and recall of configurations), Operability (simple, user-friendly UI
allows users to organize and access processing services), Security (variety of security
strategies like quarantining of unknown devices, authentication strategy, arbitration of devices
and individual streams), Scalable Architecture (cloud-native by design – architecture is built to
run detached from hardware constraints and scales on demand).
Lawo’s HOME platform is based on open standards eg. ST2110, NMOS, IEEE802.1x and
RADIUS and follows LUX, Lawo’s unified experience design principles, which provide a
consistent workflow across all Lawo IP products.
