Decentralized Ultra-Low Latency Streaming Server
A decentralized media server designed to handle media streaming on a global scale, making it suitable for large-scale applications but with minimal cost.
It is developed by 8xFF, a group of independent developers who are passionate about building a new generation of media server and network infrastructure with decentralization in mind. While we have received support from various companies and individuals, we are not affiliated with any specific company. 8xFF is a community-driven project, and we welcome anyone interested in contributing to join us.

Project Status: Refactoring
We are actively refactoring entire media server and network stack with sans-io-runtime for better performance. If you are looking for an older version, please check out the legacy branch.
Features
- 🚀 Powered by Rust with memory safety and performance.
- High availability by being fully decentralized, with no central controller.
- 🛰️ Multi-zone support, high scalability.
- Support encodings: H264, Vp8, Vp9, H265 (Coming soon), AV1 (Coming soon)
- Cross-platform: Linux, macOS, Windows.
- Decentralized WebRTC SFU (Selective Forwarding Unit)
- Easy to deploy: single binary, Docker, or Kubernetes
- Easy to scale: global pubsub network, similar to Cloudflare interconnected network)
