Unified Streaming provides software for streaming, offline packaging and recording of streaming video and audio. Unified Streaming platform aims to deliver a single source to various formats, avoiding the need for separate infrastructure. It fits into existing web servers (Apache, IIS, Nginx and Lighttpd) and runs on Windows, Linux and Unix.[1][2]
The platform started as dual licensed h264 webserver module,[3] which in turn has roots in Open Source Lighttpd Flash module mod_flv_streaming.[4] Unified Streaming was launched in 2012 as a subsidiary of Code-Shop (founded in 2005) after several years of research in streaming media. Unified streaming is a partner of the 5G PPP Superfluidity project to create heterogeneous 5G networks, sponsored by European Commission's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.[5][6]
