Mediastream: The Key Ally in the Success of Mercado Play
In a market where immediacy and high demand for audiovisual content have become a principal value, the audiovisual content distribution network is critical for video and other multimedia content distributors.
Video streaming servers speed up the distribution of content by storing it on servers dispersed throughout various geographic territories, which allows providing content to the requesting user from the nearest server, thus speeding up distribution and improving the content consumption experience.
The term CDN refers to Content Delivery Network. It comprises a set of servers located in various parts of the world, which store multimedia content from the main server. A CDN aims to reduce the distance between users and information on a website to speed up the download of files.
Now that we understand what CDN Network means, we need to know how it works. A CDN works in 3 basic steps. First, a user requests video content from anywhere in the world. Subsequently, the request is sent to one of the closest CDN nodes to retrieve the information. Finally, the server finds the copy, and such is forwarded to the user for immediate download.
This route is completed in milliseconds, although, to ensure proper navigation, it is also important that there is an adequate Internet speed. Fortunately, various countries in Latin America have experienced improvements in broadband penetration:
