Legacy code viability
The VOD player has a high user traffic and large content library. It needed to be protected against content theft and provide the best quality entertainment which we could achieve thanks to HLS FairPlay and Widevine.
The Challenges
Securing the video library from unauthorized access was our biggest challenge. Our experts choose the optimal architecture that would manage the high traffic in the app and allow users to conveniently browse large resources from the library.
The Solution
To handle high user traffic without any interruptions during streams, our experts used distributed servers and HLS streams. The video quality automatically adjusts to the conditions of the Internet connection. A properly prepared search engine and intelligent recommendation system ensured that users can easily search huge video catalogues. We also secured the app against screen recording and unauthorized access thanks to a safe authentication system and the DRM (Digital Rights Management) security.
