Segment-aware caching
Manifests and media segments are cached on separate timers, so playlists stay fresh while chunks are served from memory.
Stratus Delivery moves HLS and DASH streams through 38 edge locations, keeping glass-to-glass delay low even when a match goes to extra time.
Broadcasters and event platforms use Stratus to absorb audience spikes without pre-warming or manual capacity planning.
Manifests and media segments are cached on separate timers, so playlists stay fresh while chunks are served from memory.
Requests for the same segment collapse into one trip to your origin, cutting origin load by up to 97% during peaks.
Expiring tokens, geo rules and referrer checks protect paid streams without adding a hop to playback.
