Storing on cloud and live streaming

[sathyam]

Hi,
I had a question regarding storing video files on the cloud and streaming live at the same time.

Let's take a case where video is streaming live to say a mobile client at 720p30 and simultaneously storing on cloud (security camera use case where the video is being watched live and getting recorded on cloud at the same time)

If the network connection to the mobile client allows 720p but if the network connection to the cloud is poor how does the video get stored at the same 720p resolution to the cloud?

Thanks

This has little to nothing to do with the aspect ratio of the video you wish to store.

It has everything to do with the bitrate of that video AND your connection.

Most would actually store such, if they are, critical videos to a local drive and not rely on both the network connection and the ability of the destination server to store it appropiatley. A slow connection could result in just random frames being stored.

In this scenario you must actually test the process. You probably have little control over the bitrate and even if you did push that too low to accommodate the connection will not be satisfactory anyway.

And do you really need 720p ?. SD video will require substantially less bitrate and be easier to transfer over a slow connection.
