Container-based Video Streaming Service
Matus Vidieccan, Martin Bobák · 2022
Video or audio streaming is highly sought after by the most of the Internet users today. Media-oriented companies offer streaming of video and audio content as a service that must be able to handle a large number of user requests, guarantee a sustainable data transmission and be constantly available for the end devices.The aim of this paper is to propose the prototype of a video streaming application that is able to manage real-time video for a larger number of users. The application must be available at all times. This objective is achieved by containerisation of the application, which contributes to the overall efficiency, high portability, modularity, and constant availability. The application is driven by a software architecture design called microservices. The containerised application is validated and compared with monolithic version of the application.
