The latest software project is called PeerFlow. The PeerFlow platform is an innovative type of hybrid CDN/P2P service, that allows access to a maximum number of end client devices, removing the limitations of the currently used platforms. Any device with an Internet browser can use the platform (computers, smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, etc.)
PeerFlow is designed to work entirely on the Internet by using a combination of P2P (Peer-To-Peer), Cloud architecture and HTML5 technologies, ie. OTT service of the latest generation.
Using the Livestreaming Platform you can distribute TV and Radio channels, as well as all other types of online streams. The company deliver your streams through a fully encrypted WebRTC-based network, allowing secure transport to any part of the world, from your source to your end customers. All this without having to invest resources in servers, CDN providers or encoding services.
The system supports many different types of sources - MPEG-TS over UDP, MPEG-TS over HTTP, HLS, MPEG-DASH, and the most common encoding types - H264 AAC / MP2.
Peerflow is a perfect example of the benefits of highly scalable P2P technology in content streaming as an alternative to traditional IPTV and cable operators.
The offered technology stack can be used by broadcasting companies around the world to improve video QoE and cost efficiency.
Providing a high-quality video experience for your customers and end users is crucial, as a content provider, in order to compete in the growing OTT broadcasting market. PeerFlow will help you tremendously to tackle these challenges, and allows running the infrastructure at a predictable cost and with maximum scalability. PeerFlow allocates the content delivery between company’s intelligent cluster of Injectors and SuperPeers and a mesh network of devices watching the same stream. This way, viewers will connect and share your live content with each other. The more viewers, the better your stream works.This architecture is better for scaling and more resilient during streaming peak hours.
PeerFlow is integrated with the broadcaster’s existing platform by deploying a few lines of Javascript on the web page where the video player resides.
Customers can test, control and monitor using the PeerFlow online dashboard, also to gain control of every part of the software with an on-premise installation of PeerFlow for full application control, 100% privacy and independence from external services. The innovative platform allows to offer the lowest prices on the market (10x lower than CDN prices), Infinite scalability and high streaming bitrates allowing 4K live streams. International investors are also sought.

Advantages & innovations

WebRTC-Based P2P solutions, like PeerFlow, have the ability to enable the end user’s devices to share fragments of content by connecting with each other, and due to their high scalability and stability, P2P networks have proven to be the ideal solution for companies with large numbers. What the technology does is making Multicast possible inside an OTT network (Decentralized system). Peer Flow uses end devices that stream data via Unicast from a Content server and builds direct Unicast connections to other devices streaming the same data thus forming decentralized mesh network. Peer Flow then uses these direct user-to-user connections (also known as Peer-To-Peer connections) to exchange data. What amount of data is exchanged via these connections is monitored and proactively managed by company’s Cloud services.Thus, Peer Flow extends the traditional OTT Unicast network with an overlaying Peer-To-Peer Delivery Network. Whether it is for Live streams, TV’s, online radio stations, user generated content or VOD, the End-to- End Content Delivery Technology allows the broadcasters to improve the performance, enhance reliability and expand their services across the globe. Peer Flow’s economical price of bandwidth is also crucial for Broadcaster, considering that the platform provides 10X reduction of price per GB of bandwidth. The HTML 5 and WebRTC technologies in the software ensure the widest possible range of devices and operating systems without the need to install additional end-user plugins. Due to the crypted nature of WebRTC protocol, all the communication and content are safe from manipulation by other peers.Video streams are never written to disk/physical media Main advantages summary: -The lowest prices on market (10x lower than CDN) - Infinite Scalability (more users = even better quality) - High streaming bit rates allowing 4K live streams. - Fully End-to-End solution, no need for third party services - Reduce costs and increase your revenue
