The streaming industry has long been forced to compromise, trapped in a trade-off between the sub-second latency of WebRTC and the massive, cost-effective scalability of traditional HTTP-based streaming. Media over QUIC (MoQ) promises to shatter this divide. But is the technology truly ready for prime time? As MoQ rapidly transitions from an IETF experimental protocol into early-adopter production, Varnish Software and Ora Streaming is at the forefront of its real-world application. In this session, we dive into the practical realities, architectural challenges, and performance benchmarks of implementing MoQ within a Private Video CDN context.
Here we will share our insights into how MoQ performs under pressure, the infrastructure required to support it, and the definitive conclusions we’ve drawn about its readiness to power the next generation of ultra-low latency live broadcasting.
