Manifold Technologies will announce at NAB Show 2026 (Booth C.1808) that its manifold CLOUD platform will be available as a deployable application within NEP Platform, NEP Group’s software orchestration system. The integration will be demonstrated at NEP’s meeting space (N253, North Hall, Level 2) and at manifold’s booth.

NEP Platform provides an orchestration layer that deploys third-party broadcast software on shared commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) compute in IP environments. Approved applications can be deployed, scaled, and torn down automatically, with real-time telemetry for health, performance, and usage.

Within NEP Platform, manifold CLOUD will provide FPGA-accelerated multiviewer, UDX conversion, and graphics insertion services across NEP’s global fleet of mobile units, flypacks, and facilities. The NAB demonstration will allow visitors to select manifold from the NEP Platform application catalogue and watch the software deploy onto shared COTS compute, after which it appears as a virtual device within NEP’s TFC orchestration layer.

“Collaboration with our partners, including arkona and manifold, has been instrumental in turning the vision of NEP Platform into a practical reality,” says Dan Murphy, VP of NEP Platform. “Manifold’s FPGA-accelerated infrastructure harnesses the flexibility of COTS and software-defined processing capabilities with the power of hardware acceleration. This architecture combines deterministic performance with the scalability and agility modern productions demand. It is exactly this kind of partnership that enables us to deliver next-generation broadcast workflows for our customers worldwide.”

“NEP has always understood that the future of live production isn’t hardware or software alone – it’s how effectively both integrate,” says Aleksei Shevchenko, CEO and Co-Founder, Manifold Technologies. “With NEP Platform, they’ve built the orchestration layer that makes that integration repeatable, scalable, and secure – and allows various service providers to come together and collaborate in order to offer a product which benefits the industry as a whole. We’re proud to be part of that vision and to have our technology available to NEP’s customers around the world.”
