Investigating Approaches to Multi-CDN Delivery
In this project, the SVTA Players and Playback group will look at the different approaches to multi-CDN delivery and provide an analysis to help streaming platforms select the best option for their specific business requirements. In addition, the group will propose a client-side solution using a JavaScript load balancer and SDK compatibility layer. This solution may encompass different heuristics for CDN selection, and one of our goals is to study the impact of client-side CDN switching on a client’s rate-adaptation algorithm.
