iOS to S3 ??? -- "LIVE" . . .

[SanthoshMKunthe]

Hi, WebRTC iOS. . . https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesisvideostreams-webrtc-dg/latest/devguide/kvswebrtc-sdk-ios.html . . . Can the videos be stored to S3 . . . I just want a one way streaming. . . can this one way be saved to S3. . .

If yes. . . a) is it officially supported by AWS or b) is it a work around. . .

What is Kinesis Video Streams Producer Libraries for "iOS" ???

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesisvideostreams/latest/dg/producer-sdk.html only mentions

Java Producer Library

Android Producer Library

C++ Producer Library

C Producer Library . ..

What about iOS. . .

In short how to send video from iOS to S3 live. . .

WebRTC is a peer to peer communication protocol. It is possible for one side to send the video and the other side to only receive and not send anything in return, however there is no support to backup this video in S3.

The Producer library is for a different use case, in particular it is to send video directly to AWS Kinesis Video Streams service. Once it's there it can be viewed in the AWS Console, or you can use the available APIs to request an HLS/DASH stream, see here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesisvideostreams/latest/dg/how-playback.html for the full list of ways in which you can retrieve the video. Again there is no support for getting the video in S3 -- however something that might meet your needs is mentioned in the link there is a GetClip API, so once it's in the KVS service you can retrieve the video with a specified start/end time, in MP4 packaged format.

Copy-pasting my response to the other issue

@SanthoshMKunthe the WebRTC itself is primarily used for realtime communication. Currently, we don't support persistence. If you need persistence you need to build it yourself - one of the ways I suggest is to run dual streaming mode where there is a parallel stream being uploaded to KVS.

There are no iOS specific SDK for the producer. You could try to compile the C or C++ producer SDK for iOS.

I am going to close this issue for now

any suggestion over C++ v/s C . . . which producer library is better. . .

[MushMal]

C++ is a thin layer on top of C. Depending on your application, perhaps the right approach might be to write the business logic in C and then wrap a very thin layer in Objective C instead of wrapping the SDK
