Live streaming capabilities

Scenario Origin

Intranet (some data loss acceptable)

WMS 9 or later via UDP Rtsp://server/publishing_point

Intranet (no data loss acceptable)

WMS 9 or later via TCP Rtspt://server/publishing_point

Servers separated by firewall

WMS 9 or later via httphttp://server/publishing_point

Rebroadcast multicast stream to unicast network segment

WMS 9 or later via MCastMCast://%systemdrive%\Wmpub\Wmroot\file.nsc

HTTP and MCast can also be used to connect to Media Services 4.1.

Planning for multi site deployments

Required Network Capacity

= Content bit rate x estimated number of clients

Multicast StreamingIncreases the capacity of a stream

Enable Multiple Bit Rate to improve the performance of low bandwidth clients

Remote WMS

Use IPSec for secure transfer between sites

Design content storage

Scenario Origin

File server (Share)

• Resource can run other services

• Access using publishing point computer account

Network Attached Storage(NAS)

• Dedicated appliance

• Easy to configure

Storage Area Network (SAN)

• Potentially the most expensive solution

• Higher performance with block level access

• Expandable as needed

Increase caching performance by disabling file sharing mode
