Ant Media Server is a live streaming engine software that provides adaptive, ultra low latency streaming by using WebRTC technology with ~0.5 seconds latency. Ant Media Server is auto-scalable and it can run on-premise or on-cloud.
Deploy Edge in Ohio via cluster Connect them via VPC peering following this document
Publish the stream on the South Brazil Origin
Play the HLS stream via Ohio Edge
Expected behavior
Each HLS chunks should be downloaded around 100ms
Actual behavior
Each HLS chunks takes about 800 ms to 1 sec download time in browsers. The HLS stream is taking time to load, causing more latency in the playback
Goal
The goal of this investigation is to find out where the bottleneck is. It may be due to VPC or networking between Ohio and Brazil or may be even something in the Ant Media Server delay. First find out everything is ok in VPC and networking between Ohio and Brazil by making some tests with other tools
