Accelerating Time to Market: How One Platform Streamlines Development
If you’re building with modular toolkits, you’ve probably felt the pain of integrating disparate components firsthand. Stitching components together often results in fragmented systems that demand extensive configuration and constant troubleshooting. This complexity eats into valuable development time—and diverts focus away from innovation.
A study by Onymos revealed that development leaders and their teams spend over 40% of their time on maintenance tasks. This substantial reallocation of time underscores the inefficiencies inherent in fragmented development environments, keeping things running instead of building what’s next.
The Bottlenecks of Modular Systems
Each additional component introduces multiple potential points of failure. Developers working with modular architectures often have to grapple with:
- Dependency Conflicts: Updating one module can disrupt others, leading to stability issues and debugging loops.
- Performance Inconsistencies: Components optimized for one hardware accelerator may underperform on another, requiring additional tuning and configuration.
These bottlenecks can directly impact time to market, making it harder to scale projects, deploy updates, and introduce new features.
Transitioning to End-to-End Development
The industry is moving away from patchwork architectures that force developers to juggle individual toolsets, APIs, and hardware configurations. Instead, modern teams are turning to end-to-end platforms that eliminate integration overhead and accelerate delivery.
Nx EVOS embodies this shift. It delivers a full-stack framework where AI integration, video processing, and cross-platform deployment work together natively. Instead of piecing together third-party components, you get a cohesive platform built to streamline development and accelerate deployment from day one.
By removing the complexity of fragmented systems, Nx EVOS helps your team spend less time maintaining infrastructure and more time building and innovating.
How Nx EVOS Streamlines Development
A Unified Toolkit For Developers
Nx EVOS includes a comprehensive suite of developer tools—APIs, SDKs, Nx AI Manager, and an open-source client—known as Nx Toolkit, designed to simplify and accelerate development, customization, and integration.
- APIs & SDKs simplify third-party integration and customization by providing pre-built methods for integrating external video sources, storage solutions, and metadata streams, while enabling seamless communication through Nx Cloud, Nx Connect, and the HTTP Server API.
- Nx AI Manager removes friction from deploying and managing AI models. It provides a universal AI inference pipeline that works across GPUs, TPUs, and VPUs—enabling scalable, hardware-agnostic deployment without vendor-specific setup.
- The Open Source Client offers full access to the Nx client interface and logic, so you can white-label, extend, and tailor workflows to your specific use case.
Pre-Built, Full Stack Components
With Nx EVOS, there’s no need to build or integrate third-party UIs or infrastructure from scratch. You’re building on a complete, production-ready system.
- Pre-built UIs (desktop, cloud, mobile) eliminate the need to develop user interfaces or integrate disparate third-party systems, reducing time to market.
- The Nx Media Server is a lightweight, efficient video engine optimized for recording, multi-stream playback, adaptive bitrate control, and failover, with no external dependencies.
- The platform itself eliminates the need for integrating separate media engines, systems, or AI pipelines, significantly reducing complexity and removing common points of failure.
Seamless Scalability & Deployment Flexibility
Nx EVOS is designed for flexible deployment across on-prem, cloud, hybrid, and edge environments—supporting everything from single-site installations to globally distributed systems.
- The Organization Layer enables centralized management across an unlimited number of Sites, offering infinite scalability without added complexity.
- Hardware-agnostic by design, Nx EVOS runs on standard x86-based systems and supports a wide variety of infrastructure configurations—giving you the flexibility to build on your terms.
- Its open architecture supports a wide range of deployment scenarios without requiring rebuilding or reconfiguration as your application evolves.
Less Maintenance, More Time to Build
Because Nx EVOS is a tightly integrated platform with a shared codebase, it dramatically reduces the operational overhead traditionally associated with modular architectures.
- All core components—media server, clients, AI model support, and developer tools—are developed as part of a unified stack, eliminating the need for external plugins or manual integration work.
- A shared codebase ensures synchronized updates across the stack, preventing version mismatches and compatibility issues.
- When assistance is needed, Network Optix offers a rapidly responsive support team, an active online developer community, and extensive documentation, ensuring you get the help you need when you need it.
The Future of Development is Seamless
The modular approach to development has reached its limits. As AI, video, and data-driven applications scale in complexity, the need for fully integrated end-to-end platforms is more important than ever.
Nx EVOS isn’t just an alternative to modular development—it’s the next step forward in intelligent video solution development. Instead of forcing developers to work around limitations, it provides a foundation designed for flexibility, efficiency, and continuous evolution.
