Building a video streaming platform with high availability

A highly customizable video streaming service offering end-to-end video production capabilities

This video platform was designed to offer corporate clients a complete video production, hosting and streaming experience from script writing to editing and streaming with a highly customizable interface and dashboard.

As the software development partner we optimized features, migrated content, increased performance and drastically reduced technological costs during our over 10+ years of collaboration.

Outcome

Video streaming with custom features, robust security, full compliance, and virtually limitless scalability.

Novelty of the project

Crafted for large corporate clients in the European market seeking a customized communication solution, this platform provides live and on-demand video curation, extensive video production options, and specialized features.

Clients can tailor the platform to align with their brand communication elements, ensuring a more secure and reliable streaming service. This enables them to reach larger audiences than traditional video streaming services and enhance interaction with stakeholders, ultimately offering greater control for B2B customers.

Our role

We became involved in the project from its inception, progressively assuming responsibility for the entire software development process, from architecture design to ongoing maintenance.

At the height of our collaboration, our team comprised nine software professionals, including a full-stack development team, a UI/UX designer, a project manager, a tech lead, and QA specialists. We played a crucial role in optimizing the platform for both performance and cost efficiency.

Benefits of our partnership

Cost and performance optimization through high availability

By migrating from legacy infrastructure to AWS cloud infrastructure and implementing advanced database and hosting solutions through our tech consultancy, we significantly enhanced performance and scalability while reducing costs by over fivefold. The improvements were so substantial that they were evident month-over-month.

Our method of encoding process integration offers a seamless user experience. The integration is fault tolerant and also offers a backup solution if the primary solution is not suitable for the current use case.

Increased security and compliance

Given that the platform was designed for large corporate clients, ensuring security and compliance with strict regional regulations was a critical focus. Throughout our development process, we prioritized enabling B2B users to access all necessary data and analytics for informed decision-making while ensuring that no user profiling could occur.

The platform adheres to the latest security best practices and industry standards to safeguard sensitive user information. By ensuring that only trusted resources are loaded, it effectively prevents potential cross-origin data leaks and strengthens overall security.

Ethical development

While our development processes are already aligned with our partner's requirements, it is crucial for us to prioritize ethical development in all our projects. This commitment ensures privacy, transparency, and security for all stakeholders, be it the client, users, or third-party integrations.
