Redefining Live Streaming On Demand: How Deutsche Telekom and MainStreaming Are Raising the Bar
MainStreaming and T Wholesale (Deutsche Telekom) have jointly developed the Live Stream On Demand Delivery Platform: a fully managed Private Edge Network that gives broadcasters and OTT platforms access to dedicated, on-demand delivery capacity for premium live events. Designed and operated by MainStreaming and deployed directly within Deutsche Telekom’s network infrastructure, the solution addresses one of the industry's most pressing challenges: ensuring consistent streaming quality during massive, unpredictable traffic peaks.
The platform combines edge-native architecture, software-defined orchestration, and multi-protocol delivery to create a scalable and resilient environment purpose-built for live streaming. This enables broadcasters to dynamically access additional delivery capacity exactly when it is needed, while maintaining high levels of reliability, efficiency, and viewer Quality of Experience.
The solution also demonstrates a new model of collaboration between content providers and network operators, bringing content closer to audiences while optimizing network utilization and reducing operational complexity. Already trusted by a leading global OTT service for premium live event delivery, the platform provides a blueprint for how telcos and streaming providers can work together to meet the growing demands of large-scale live streaming.
