Skyline Communications said its DataMiner xOps platform helped beIN SPORTS with one of its more demanding live broadcast operations during the FIFA World Cup 2026, giving the broadcaster real-time control over thousands of live media streams.
The company said the platform gave beIN SPORTS a unified view of streams, resources and schedules across teams working on the tournament, reducing reliance on manual coordination and separate tools.
beIN SPORTS used DataMiner xOps to plan events, reserve resources and monitor live operations in real time, Skyline said. The company said the system created a digital twin of the broadcaster’s live media operation and helped teams work from the same up-to-date view.
The platform also helped automate parts of the workflow, which Skyline said saved several hundred operational hours and reduced the risk of human error.
“Major live sports events demand flawless coordination across multiple operational teams,” said Delphine Calvini, beIN Media Group director of technology. “By implementing DataMiner xOps, we were able to streamline complex workflows, reduce manual synchronization efforts and improve end-to-end operational efficiency throughout the tournament.”
“Live sports operations leave no room for error, and a tournament of this scale multiplies that pressure across every team and every stream,” said Pramod Gupta, Skyline Communications executive director. “What we’ve achieved with beIN SPORTS shows the value of running live operations from a single, unified platform rather than a patchwork of point solutions.”
Ben Vandenberghe, Skyline Communications CEO, said the project shows how broadcasters can build toward more automated operations. “With DataMiner xOps, beIN SPORTS now has the data and control foundation and the workflow automation to match its ambition,” he said. “That is exactly what puts an organization in position to enter the agentic era.”
Skyline said the example reflects a broader shift in broadcast operations as live productions grow more complex and distributed.
