WeStream meetup #1

Join us on January 25 at 6pm in Pracovna (Prague, Žižkov).

You will hear more about our experience with African networks (presented by Radek Zajíc) and listen to a talk about streaming training and lectures by our guest speaker Petr Hodač.

6:30 pm

Network situation in Africa (Radek Zajíc, Content Delivery Team Lead, Showmax)

Summary of the talk:

Have you ever wondered what the African Internet infrastructure looks like? What is it like to run a content delivery network there? And manage it from Europe? Wonder no more! This talk will uncover some of the differences between European and African Internet infrastructure, the challenges of deploying infrastructure across the African continent, and the common troubles you may run into, should you ever want to offer video content to the users in Africa.

7:00 pm

Streaming of Trainings and Lectures (Petr Hodač, The Streaming Guy at AVC.sh).

Don’t miss a chance to ask us about streaming the recent #FIFAWorldCup Qatar in 4K (ultra-high-definition), or about high-volume streaming – In November, when delivering our biggest broadcasting event yet, Showmax announced a 111% year-on-year growth.
The World Cup opening match was by far the most watched sports event in Showmax history and we managed to stream it flawlessly, just like the rest of the games!
Ok, it’s time to stop bragging…come to chat about all of it in person!
The capacity of the event is limited to 65 people. We will confirm your registration back. In case you will fall below the fold, you can still listen to the talks as the event will be streamed.
