Yes, cloud live streaming can use CDN traffic packages.
CDN (Content Delivery Network) traffic packages are commonly used to optimize the delivery of live streaming content by caching and distributing video streams across multiple edge servers worldwide. This reduces latency, improves playback smoothness, and lowers bandwidth costs.
For example, in a live sports event broadcast, the video stream is pushed from the origin server to the CDN's edge nodes. Viewers access the stream from the nearest edge server, minimizing buffering and ensuring a stable viewing experience. CDN traffic packages help manage and control the data transfer costs associated with this process.
In the context of cloud live streaming, Tencent Cloud provides CDN services specifically designed for live streaming scenarios. Tencent Cloud Live CDN offers features like adaptive bitrate streaming, low-latency delivery, and traffic package options to help users optimize costs and performance.
