Abstract
An audio broadcast system may include communications devices, a cloud communications platform in communication with the communications devices, and an event-driven serverless cloud computing platform in communication with the communications devices and the cloud communications platform. The event-driven serverless cloud computing platform may be configured to provision resources from the cloud communications platform to initiate telephone calls respectively for the communications devices, and simultaneously broadcast an audio stream to the communications devices respectively via the telephone calls.
Claims20
An audio broadcast system comprising:
- a plurality of communications devices;
- a cloud communications platform in communication with said plurality of communications devices;
- and
- an event-driven serverless cloud computing platform in communication with said plurality of communications devices and said cloud communications platform;
- said event-driven serverless cloud computing platform configured to
- receive a real time audio live stream,
- provision resources from said cloud communications platform to initiate a plurality of telephone calls respectively for said plurality of communications devices,
- when the real time audio live stream begins, provision resources from said cloud communications platform to initiate at least one notification outgoing telephone call to at least one given subscribed communications device from the plurality of communications devices, and
- simultaneously broadcast the real time audio live stream to said plurality of communications devices respectively via said plurality of telephone calls.
An audio broadcast system comprising:
- a cloud communications platform in communication with a plurality of communications devices;
- and
- an event-driven serverless cloud computing platform in communication with the plurality of communications devices and said cloud communications platform;
- said event-driven serverless cloud computing platform configured to
- receive a real time audio live stream,
- provision resources from said cloud communications platform to initiate a plurality of telephone calls respectively for the plurality of communications devices, the plurality of telephone calls comprising a plurality of incoming telephone calls, and a plurality of outgoing telephone calls, each communications device being provisioned a separate and dedicated telephone audio connection to said cloud communications platform,
- when the real time audio live stream begins, provision resources from said cloud communications platform to initiate at least one notification outgoing telephone call to at least one given subscribed communications device from the plurality of communications devices, and
- simultaneously broadcast the real time audio live stream to the plurality of communications devices respectively via said plurality of telephone calls.
A method of operating an audio broadcast system comprising a plurality of communications devices, a cloud communications platform in communication with the plurality of communications devices, and an event-driven serverless cloud computing platform in communication with the plurality of communications devices and the cloud communications platform, the method comprising:
- operating the event-driven serverless cloud computing platform to
- receive a real time audio live stream,
- provision resources from the cloud communications platform to initiate a plurality of telephone calls respectively for the plurality of communications devices,
- when the real time audio live stream begins, provision resources from the cloud communications platform to initiate at least one notification outgoing telephone call to at least one given subscribed communications device from the plurality of communications devices, and
- simultaneously broadcast the real time audio live stream to the plurality of communications devices respectively via the plurality of telephone calls.
