Real-time CDN switching with Mux and Cedexis
Video publishing involves a complex network of systems that need to work together seamlessly for successful video playback. Mux and Cedexis have partnered to offer real-time CDN switching, making millisecond-level routing decisions to improve the performance and reliability of video delivery. CDNs can have inconsistent geographic performance, compatibility issues with ISPs, outages, and human errors that affect video Quality of Experience (QoE). Cedexis tracks internet delivery performance through real user measurements and reroutes traffic around congestion and outages, while Mux collects, processes, and analyzes streaming video events to identify QoE issues. Together, they provide accurate monitoring and improve the effectiveness of using multiple CDNs for better performance and cost savings.
