Hi again,

I don’t know much about Wowza DVR, hence, I don’t know if you can reproduce its features with NUBOMEDIA. As a final message, keep in mind that whenever low-latency is not required, live streaming based on protocols such as HLS and MPEG-DASH will always outperform WebRTC both in terms of scalability and quality. WebRTC miss many features of such protocols, but in exchange provides low latency.

Hi Luis,

First of thanks to reply my queries in short time.

Regarding Point 3) we require a feature like a Wowza DVR is it possible to achieve the same on NUBOMEDIA.

And regarding point 5) I think iOS, Android and Web SDKs are open source so can we add the feature of local recording to the SDKs if possible through WebRTC.

Thanks and Regards
Varun

Hi Varun,

In relation to your questions

1) Using WebRTC for live streaming is just a use case. NUBOMEDIA is a platform where you can develop all types of WebRTC applications. Hence, the short answer to your questions is yes, you can do it. The long answer is that you can do it, but it might be complex depending on the specificities of your application. A in-depth analysis of requirements might be needed for evaluating the required effort for it.
2) Yes, NUBOMEDIA provides a very powerful media repository where you can record.
3) This depends on what you understand by “rewind”. You can play a stream that is being recorded (i.e. reading and writing to the same object is possible), but this requires to manage some complexities. Hence, this might not be inmediate.
4) Yes, iOS, Android ans Web SDKs are available.
5) No, the SDKs do not support local recording. Pause and resume streaming might be implemented with server side support, but again this may require managing some complexities.

Best.

Please help us know if NUBOMEDIA is suitable for such streaming solution.

Hi Abes,

That new module is distributed a part of elasticRTC: a elastic scalable version of Kurento in Amazon Web Services. Check this link if you have an interest: https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B01HD8W9CS/

Hi Luis,

Thank you for the information. I’m currently researching Kurento and learning about it’s capabilities. The “new Kurento SFU module” you mentioned caught my attention. This new module wasn’t on my radar and I haven’t been able to find much information about it. If possible, can you provide more details about it? I suspect once the 6.5.0 documentation is posted, it will cover this.

Thanks

Hi Gaurav,

Thanks for your interest in NUBOMEDIA.

Indeed Kurento is an extremely flexible media server and this is why we used it for NUBOMEDIA. If you want superior performance, you should try the new Kurento SFU module, which has been optimized for managing a high number of WebRTC streams and which is shipped with a lot of additional features such as simulcast or multi-streaming support.

In relation to ORTC, the community is working hard for aligning with the latest novelties on the WebRTC area. ORTC support is on our roadmap, but we cannot yet commit to any specific release date yet.

Best.

I have been great follower of Kurento because of its flexibility but yes it comes at the cost of proformance.My only question with Luis is what’s the roadmap of this PaaS for ORTC or WebRTC’s next versions.

Thanks,
Gaurav
