XDN (Experience Delivery Network) as an Architecture for Our New Interactive World

How can you architect a real-time interactive broadcasting solution? Use cases such as e-sports, gambling, auctions, concerts, and more all call for technical architectures which combine the best of P2P WebRTC and broadcasting technologies in a single solution. Red5 Pro CEO Chris Allen will join us on this episode to discuss the evolution from P2P networks to SFUs to what he refers to as the XDN - Experience Delivery Network. Whether your application deals with hybrid events, online education, or security cameras, there are many possible applications for the multidirectional content delivery networks that Chris will describe for us.
