WebRTC

WebRTC stands for Web Real-Time Communications. It is a very powerful, exciting, leading-edge technology and standard.

Being a free, open-source project, it offers mobile applications and web browsers with real-time communication through simple APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). It allows video and audio communication to work inside web pages by eliminating the need to download native apps or install plugins and allowing direct peer-to-peer communication.

Supported by Opera, Mozilla, Google, Microsoft, and Apple, WebRTC is being standardized through the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).

This seamless, plugin-free approach is a game-changer for live streaming services, enabling them to deliver high-quality video and audio communication directly within browsers. With WebRTC, live streaming services can provide viewers with instant, buffer-free streams, which is essential for live broadcasts, live video streaming, events, and interactive sessions. Additionally, WebRTC’s low-latency and peer-to-peer capabilities make it an ideal choice for services that prioritize real-time interaction, such as video conferencing, online gaming, and live sports streaming. This technology empowers live streaming services to meet modern demands for accessibility, reliability, and immediacy, offering a rich, user-friendly experience without additional software.
