Callaba standardizes remote production workflows via SRT and NDI integration

This framework addresses the operational friction inherent in hybrid cloud-local productions by consolidating protocol management. By bridging SRT’s reliability for long-distance transport with NDI’s local flexibility, Callaba reduces the engineering overhead typically required for large-scale REMI setups. As broadcasters shift to IP workflows toward flexible IP-based stacks, these standardized implementation patterns become critical for interoperability. Stakeholders should monitor the adoption rate of such unified control layers compared to traditional siloed signal chains. The next signal to track is whether this integrated approach improves hitless switching success across diverse network topologies.

The push toward remote integration (REMI) solutions is accelerating as the global market is projected to grow from $7.27 billion in 2023 to over $104 billion by 2033, per research from Market.us in late 2024. Broadcasters are increasingly prioritizing remote workflows to reduce travel costs and centralize operations, with 41% of industry professionals identifying REMI as their top technology priority for 2026, according to Haivision’s seventh annual Broadcast Transformation Report released in March 2026. This trend is heavily supported by the continued dominance of the SRT protocol, which now boasts a 78% adoption rate among broadcasters, up from 47% in 2020.

Technological shifts are also seeing a rapid transition toward cellular networks for live contribution and redundancy. Haivision’s 2026 data indicates that 54% of broadcasters now use cellular for live feeds, a significant increase from 46% just one year prior. While traditional SDI infrastructure still supports 82% of operations, SMPTE ST 2110 adoption grew to 30% in early 2026 as facilities migrate to full IP environments. Platforms like Callaba that offer browser-based orchestration are capitalizing on a 17.85% CAGR in the cloud workflow market, as enterprises seek to replace fragmented legacy processes with automated, rule-driven orchestration, according to SNS Insider in June 2026.
