P2P CDN technology explained
THE SECRET FORMULA TO SOLVING YOUR VIDEO DELIVERY CHALLENGES ONCE AND FOR ALL
Video has become more and more popular for live entertainment and business communication. However, delivering a live stream to a large number of people is often problematic and can be a challenge to the network.
Therefore, people often discover these common problems with live video streams:
- Low video quality
- Long buffering times
- Bad quality of experience
- Accessibility issues or break-downs
The solution for live video streaming
EFFICIENT MEDIA DELIVERY WITHOUT CHANGES TO YOUR NETWORK: IMPLEMENT A P2P CDN.
P2P CDN technology allows you to deliver high-quality, scalable live video streams at minimum bandwidth requirements. A P2P CDN establishes connections between the devices streaming your video content. Once connected, these devices can cache and share video data, as they are streaming the same content at the same time.
Live video delivery in a P2P CDN follows this process:
- A user requests video content
- The system checks for available peers to deliver the content from
- If an applicable peer is found, the content will be provided to the user without connecting to the original server
- If such peer is not found, a connection to the origin server is established
Thanks to this approach, requests to the origin server are significantly reduced. Because of this, bandwidth savings of up to 95% are possible – resulting in a stable, high-quality video stream. The best part: The network can grow dynamically, resulting in unlimited scalability. It is completely flexible without a single point of failure.
StriveCast offers a P2P CDN that is based on WebRTC. Therefore, it can be used with every modern browser and is simple to set-up.

Why consider WebRTC
GET A P2P CDN THAT WORKS ON A PROTOCOL ALREADY INTEGRATED IN MOST BROWSERS
WebRTC stands for Web Real-Time Communication. It is an open-source protocol that allows real-time audio and video communication between connected devices via the Internet. We are all encountering WebRTC in our everyday business and private lives whenever we are – as the name states – communicating in real-time via the Internet. It is used for applications such as video conferencing, file transfer, chat, and desktop sharing. WebRTC is already integrated into most modern browsers and works with every device, so people can broadly use it without installing any new plugins or complicated set-ups.
