Technical overview of the solution

About the video platform

Biokoda video platform is divided into three parts:

• streaming software
• management software
• frontend software

Streaming software

Streaming servers offer following services:

• Video content delivery using following protocols:
o HTTP
o RTMP
o RTMPE
o RTMPT
o RTMPTE
o UDP
• Optimized video distribution throughout the server grid
o Allowing the best quality of service given the circumstances of the network
• Location based restrictions
o Servers can restrict access to video content by restricting it to Geo IP
• Scalability
o Biokoda Streaming Platform is highly scalable. It is easy to expand the grid
with additional resources providing higher output and allowing more
simultaneous connections to the platform in short time-‐spans which is crucial
for successful deployments and systems that need to grow
• Encoding
o All streaming servers can also act as VOD or live stream trans-‐coders
o Support for HD content delivery (available only on content that is uploaded in
high quality: 720p or higher), multiple-‐bitrate streaming (normal profile, HD
profile)
• Extensibility
o Streaming servers can be extended with additional custom modules
o Reuse of existing APIs and Web-‐services on the clients side (for example an
existing user database can be used to provide login protected video content)
o Integration of different systems (for example monetization or content
protection systems)

Services description and system placement

System placement

The system is built of Apple Xserve servers with OS X operation sytems. Basic placement is built from
a few up to hundreds or even more servers depending on clients needs.
The servers are separated into: web servers (metadata, web-‐content delivery) and streaming servers
(video delivery).
Web-‐servers: serve pages and are communication gateways between streaming servers and clients.
Streaming servers: serve live streams and on-‐demand videos
Services provided by the system
• Live streaming
o Generation of live thumbnails (images that get updated in regular intervals
while the live stream is active)
o Automatic stream distribution between the server grid
• Video on demand serving
o Serving of FLV files
o Serving of MP4 files
o Automatic distributions of files within the server grid for optimum
performance
• IPTV
o Broadcasting to IPTV from servers
o Trans-‐coding of IPTV channels from multicast to the Web
• Statistics
o Statistic of live broadcasts
o Statistics for video on demand videos
o Generation of statistics in different file formats
• Protection
o Protection of streams according to the clients Geo-‐IP location
o Encryption for Web (RTMPE)
• Content preparation and ingest
o Automatic encoding of video content to provided platforms (Web, IPTV)
o Upload of content via Web-‐applications
o Publishing of content via FTP (batch)

Server grid is built of web-‐servers and streaming servers. All servers connected to the grid are
communicating to eachother over an internal protocol on port 6002. Web-‐servers serve all the
content to the clients via port 80 (progressive video, live streams and protected content) which
allows us to bypass most of the firewalls and deliver video to almost every user on the internet.
