Non-linear management of real time sequential data in cloud instances via time constraints

A method, comprising:

• identifying a first media flow at a media production facility;
• identifying a second media flow at a different location than the media production facility;
• identifying a time constraint for producing a media package at a cloud network facility, wherein the media package is assembled to include the first media flow and the second media flow;
• in response to assembly of the media package exceeding the time constraint, identifying a bottleneck procedure in producing the media package;
• adjusting the bottleneck procedure to assemble the media package in a time less than or equal to the time constraint;
• assembling the media package based on the first media flow, the second media flow and the adjusted bottleneck procedure;
• and
• transmitting the media package.

A system, comprising:

• a media production facility in communication with a cloud network facility via a common carrier;
• an orchestration layer running in the media production facility and the cloud network facility over the common carrier;
• and
• a resource manager in communication with the media production facility and the cloud network facility configured to:
• in response to determining an estimated time of production of an assembled media package exceeds a time constraint to produce the assembled media package, requisition additional resources from the cloud network facility to produce the assembled media package in a first time period equal to or less than the time constraint;
• and
• access, via the orchestration layer, a plurality of component media flows located at the media production facility, on the common carrier, and at the cloud network facility to produce the assembled media package from the plurality of component media flows in the first time period and using the requisitioned additional resources.
