UPDATE:
Wowza Streaming Cloud also now supports MPEG-DASH, the open standard for HTTP-based adaptive bitrate streaming. As the default protocol for YouTube and Netflix, DASH ensures high-quality streaming experiences across various devices. It’s also a great alternative to proprietary streaming technologies like Apple’s HLS.
Some of the benefits of DASH include:
- High quality : Adaptive bitrate streaming ensures video is delivered at the highest quality possible based on each end-user’s connection, software, and device.
- Multi-DRM support : MPEG-DASH underpins Wowza’s DRM technology to enable content protection across platforms like Microsoft PlayReady and Google Widevine.
- Cost-effective: The HTTP-based format is affordable to deploy and easy to scale because it uses traditional network servers and technology.
