Choosing an appropriate live-streaming vendor that fits your needs may pose a certain level of complexity. It’s not just about considering the more typical factors like latency, cost, device compatibility, and implementation simplicity, but also other aspects that might not be immediately noticeable yet crucial. The following is a set of features associated with Operations and Management that may prove significant in the process of choosing a live-streaming vendor or a solution that would enable the launch of your own live-streaming Content Delivery Network (LCDN).
METRICS
Vindral Live’s system is designed to constantly monitor performance and load parameters, fostering an environment of proactive and responsive management. This continuous observation allows for real-time assessment and the capability to promptly respond to any potential issues before they escalate.
Performance monitoring ensures the system functions at its optimal level, providing valuable information about the system’s response time, stream throughput, number of viewers, and other operational metrics. This constant vigilance allows for immediate detection of performance deviations, offering the opportunity to implement solutions and maintain the system’s efficiency.
ANALYTICS
Vindral Live provides comprehensive built-in analytics tools that enable you to gain valuable insights about your channels, viewers, and geographic locations. These tools allow you to analyze various metrics, including the types of devices and browsers used, average bitrate, egress traffic, average time-to-first-frame (TTFF), and more.
FULLY REDUNDANT
Vindral Live offers a sophisticated, highly redundant architecture designed for maximum system availability. Our suite of robust features includes redundant ingest sites and transcoders with fail-over capabilities, which contribute to the overall resilience of our system.
In addition to these, a Global Load Balancer plays a pivotal role in distributing network traffic efficiently across multiple data centers, thereby ensuring the optimal use of resources, reducing server response times, and increasing overall network reliability.
Our infrastructure extends to multiple data centers and runs on numerous Internet Service Provider (ISP) networks, further enhancing redundancy and ensuring high availability. Each component of the Vindral Live system is designed with a fail-safe mechanism to provide consistent, uninterrupted service, thus ensuring an unparalleled level of resilience and reliability across all aspects of the service provision.
This combination of high redundancy and high availability positions Vindral Live as a leading choice for organizations that prioritize reliable, uninterrupted service provision and robust, fault-tolerant network architecture.
