Hardware nowadays shouldn't be a problem to handle a videoconf with 30 people, bandwidth could be. In a regular "all against all" videoconference with 30 user the server would be handling:
30 incoming streams, plus 30*29 outgoing streams. that's 30^2= 900 simultaneus streams. If each one is, say, 100kbps you have a total of 90,000 kbps (90Mbps) flowing. Just for 1 videoconference. Yes, i also want global multicasting ;) On 4/26/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi to everyone, I just started to learn red5 because I need an application server that should be used to develop a commercial application for video conference on demand. I never used red5 before and I need an advice from you: is red5 ready for developing a commercial product that could be used by a lot of users (I think 1000/1500) ? I'm doing this question because I read that someone have got problems with live streaming, and I can't understand if those problems are related to red5 or the client program (or maybe the server hardware). I have another question for you: do you have any suggestion for the hardware needed to handle correctly a conference with 20/30 people? I know that the hardware requisites depend also on streaming quality and how many commands are sent between client and server, but a rough valuation could be really helpful for me. Thanks a lot, Gabriele _______________________________________________ Red5 mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/red5_osflash.org
