Why Choose a Hybrid WebRTC Delivery Method with Wowza SE & P2P for Optimal Streaming Performance?
P2P streaming offers the best latency by directly connecting the broadcaster to the viewer’s client. However, the broadcaster’s encoding power and uploading bitrate limit the maximum number of viewers that can be served.
On the other hand, Wowza Streaming Engine (Wowza SE) enables the broadcaster to encode and send only one stream to the server, which then distributes the same stream to all viewers. Live streaming capacity depends solely on server resources and connectivity, which is often significantly better than home connectivity.
While regular P2P connections allow for few connections (viewers) per stream due to broadcaster limitations, server-based streaming enables up to hundreds to watch the same stream.
While even scaling WebRTC may have its limitations, technologies like RTMP to HLS improve scaling and reliability but introduce latency, sometimes up to 10 seconds or more.
That’s usually no issue for 1 way streaming as can be seen on major platforms, but a great problem in 2 way private calls where users interact. So different interactions require different approaches, and P2P should also be implemented.
The good thing about streaming trough a server is that you can use multiple. Multi-server setups provide an even higher level of scaling.
Relay streaming services expand solution capabilities beyond home connection capabilities and mobile network reliability. They also enable platform-specific functionalities such as adaptive server transcoding for different broadcaster/player technologies, stream snapshots, and on-server broadcast archiving. Running production-grade platforms requires professional streaming servers.
Broadcasters need server-grade connections to live stream to multiple users. Using a regular home ADSL connection or mobile network often leads to issues. While P2P demos and small load trials work fine for a few users, WebRTC limits become apparent in production mode with many users watching the same HD stream.
Startups hope for their streaming applications to attract thousands of viewers. A performer streaming full HD video at 6-8 Mbps directly to 100 viewers worldwide would require a 600-800 Mbps upload connection, which is unrealistic for a retail home connection. A streaming server in a well-connected data center solves this issue.
VideoWhisper’s approach, combining Wowza SE distribution for 1-to-many live streams and P2P WebRTC for private calls, delivers the best of both worlds.

Supports 1 Way Live Broadcasting, 2 Way Video Chat/Call, Video Conference, Video Presentation/Collaboration, Video Recording, Live Video Archiving, Restreaming from IP Camera RTSP and other Sources -
Scaling
Use a relay streaming server to broadcast to multiple viewers at same time, more than a home internet connection would permit. Use one ore more plans, upgrade as necessary to scale your project. While regular P2P connections permit few connections per stream, with this technology a streaming server enables hundreds or thousands. -
Reliability
Reliable streaming between various devices and connections (including mobile networks) using a reliable streaming relay server.
