Blitline vs GStreamer: What are the differences?

Developers describe Blitline as "Image processing in the cloud (cropping, rotating, compositing, filtering)". Blitline drastically reduces the amount of work you need to develop an application that does any image processing. Stop rebuilding the same image processing functionality, let us do it for much less than it would cost you to make and support it. Pay for only the image processing time that your jobs use. We believe your images should be YOUR images. We also believe that you should never be "locked in" to using Blitline. The flexibility of the JSON API means you could stub out Blitline later without ever touching your production/deployed code. On the other hand, GStreamer is detailed as "Open source multimedia framework". GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components. The applications it supports range from simple Ogg/Vorbis playback, audio/video streaming to complex audio (mixing) and video (non-linear editing) processing.

Blitline and GStreamer can be categorized as "Image Processing and Management" tools.
