Summary
Cloudflare Stream now supports video playback with sub-second latency over SRT or RTMPS at scale. This is achieved by routing video traffic within the Cloudflare network, leveraging its Anycast network and backbone for minimal latency. The platform supports dynamic distribution topologies and aims to make video delivery easy by supporting multiple protocols, including RTMPS and SRT for ingestion and delivery, with future exploration of WebRTC, QUIC, HTTP/3, and WebTransport. The service offers sub-second latency for use cases like interactive Q&A sessions, esports, and remote webinars.
