Cluster VOD storage recommendations

[Daniel B]

It seems VOD files play from origin servers rather than edge servers like live streams. The VOD files are stored on the origin server that handled the live stream. What's the recommended way to handle VOD storage on cluster setups so they they play correctly?

Hi Daniel,

For doing it so, you need something like S3 and you can use httpPortForwarding see how to use it on; https://github.com/ant-media/Ant-Media-Server/wiki/Amazon-(AWS)-S3-Integration#forward-mp4-and-preview-request-to-aws-s3-in-your-application

Or you can use network distributed file system, which you can mount streams folder as a shared folder among the instances, it will do the trick too.

Cheers
