For clarity: this may be multiple servers or VMs too, the encoding
software is capable of running on multiple nodes. Having said that,
virtualisation slows the transcoding down somewhat (especially the I/O
heavy bits of it), so it may be preferable to have bare material options
if they are available.

(we're using the same encoding software for FOSDEM, where it runs on 2
"storage" plus one "master" plus five "encoder slave" nodes all from the
same IaaS provider)
