Load balancing on Android and iOS

Wowza Streaming Engine
1

Hi,

I use Flowplayer (with redirect 302) for RTMP live streaming and iOS, so want setup a load balancing configuration from two server,

in my player script I use Flowplayer for Web (able to make load balancing with Wowza) and iOS, and RTSP for Android (directly RTSP link)

so, how to make load balancing for mobile devices (rtsp,hls) ?

thanks

Hi,

If using the Wowza Load Balancer then you could look at using the following method to find the Wowza server with the least load:

http://[load-balancer-ip-address]:1935/loadbalancer

This will return a string in the format:

redirect=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

There is example ActionScript code in the “client” folder of the Load Balancer package that demonstrates how to request and parse this response. This can be used as a basis for more elaborate client side load balancing capabilities.
