Limit the number of connections between origin server and edge server when using relay server

Wowza Streaming Engine

Hi

I succeeded in connecting one relay server and two edge servers.

  1. How many edge servers can I connect to the relay server? Is there a limit?

  2. Is it really impossible to limit the number of connections of edges in a relay-edge structure?

We want to use the structure of relay-edge-load balance server because we expect 10,000 users.

If I am using this structure, how many edge servers do I need?

  1. what is the maximum number of stream files that can be registered in one application?

Thiank you!

Hello @sunny park

Can you specify what you mean relay? We do not have that type of configuration in the Wowza terminology.

To respond to your questions.

1) How many edge servers can I connect to the relay server? Is there a limit?

There is not a hardcoded limit to Edge server number to Origin server.

2) Is it really impossible to limit the number of connections of edges in a relay-edge structure?

We want to use the structure of relay-edge-load balance server because we expect 10,000 users.

If I am using this structure, how many edge servers do I need?

I would suggest reaching out to our sales team to discuss what you need for a specific workflow you have in mind.

3) what is the maximum number of stream files that can be registered in one application?

There is no hardcoded limit to StreamFiles per application or per server.

We do outline available Scaling options in Wowza Streaming Engine here:

Hope this helps.
