Small Scale VOD Streaming - Am I looking in the right place?

Question

Hi,
I am learning AWS as I go... I work for a small company that would like to sell video subscriptions. I am looking into MediaConvert, MediaPackage and MediaStore with the plan to embed the output on our website in a secure way (users unable to download). If I had to guess, I would say we have about 20 hours of videos and would stream to about 30 users a month.
Am I looking in the right spot or is this overkill?

Answer

To start with a VOD platform you can leverage Amazon S3 and Amazon CloudFront. You can use AWS Elemental MediaConvert for transcoding. For running web app you can use AWS Serverless services like API Gateway, Lambda and Cognito. You can check below implementation guide and blog for help
