Scaling Video Delivery from 100 TB to Petabyte Levels
What does it really take to support video traffic growing from 132 TB to more than 1.3 PB per month? In this article, we break down the infrastructure, encoding workflows, CDN architecture, API capabilities, and pricing logic behind large-scale video hosting. If you are evaluating providers and need clarity on adaptive streaming, multi-audio support, transcription, […]

What is Storage? A Deep Dive on Designing for Speed, Durability, and Data Behavior
Your storage setup decides how your system behaves when people actually use it. It decides whether a service keeps up under load, how much you end up paying for capacity, and how much trouble you’re in when something breaks. Though some might think of storage as just a box you stick data into – one […]

Digital Rights Management for Video Streaming Platforms
Digital Rights Management is often treated as a security checkbox: enable DRM, protect content, move on. In real-world video streaming, that assumption breaks quickly. DRM sits directly on the playback path, affects startup time, scales with concurrency, and fails in ways that look like video delivery problems, not security issues.

Why You Should Build Your Infrastructure in an Amsterdam Data Center
In Europe’s digital map, there’s a single point where everything converges. It’s the place where fiber from London, Frankfurt, and the Nordics meets transatlantic cables from the U.S. and Asia. It’s where the regulatory framework is more liberal – and more advanced – than anywhere else in the world. That place is Amsterdam. For companies […]

Infrastructure design is never neutral. Whether you pick public or private cloud directly affects workload economics, operational overhead, and security posture. It’s not about comparing features in isolation; […]

Foundational Video Streaming Infrastructure: The Three Pillars
Video streaming is a category of its own in the digital world. Where traditional web applications move small, transactional payloads, streaming demands continuous delivery of massive files to audiences that may number in the thousands or millions at once. A single HD feature film, encoded into multiple formats and resolutions, easily multiplies into tens of […]

Bare Metal or Cloud? How to Pick the Best Architecture for Performance & Scale
Choosing between regular cloud vs bare metal is an architectural decision. The model an organization selects influences performance under load, scaling behavior, operational complexity, and how predictable infrastructure costs remain over time. Many teams start out with standard cloud offerings because they move fast: provisioning is instant, services are readily available, and experimentation is easy. […]
