save live stream video on Amazon S3?

Does wowza support recording live stream & saving them to S3, instead of local file-system?

If you are using one of the Wowza pre-built AMIs, the easiest way is to 1) configure an application with StreamType “live-record”, 2) enable s3fs (FUSE) mount (see EC2 Guide, 3) Enable ModuleMediaWriterFileMover

For playback use MediaCache. The vods3 application installed on a pre-built Wowza AMI is a MediaCache application. This is also covered in detail in the EC2 guide.

How can we achieve this on Android end?

Hi Lovekush,

Can you clarify what you’re looking to accomplish? Are you looking to use an App such as GoCoder on Android to push locally saved recordings to an S3 bucket?

Best regards,

Yes, I want to save Live Streaming directly on S3 bucket ,While I am on Live Streaming without storing it on Local mobile device.

Hello Lovekush,

We have a module that can be used with Wowza Streaming Engine that might be helpful to your workflow. The S3Uploader module will take a live stream broadcasted through WSE and push the recording of this stream directly to an S3 bucket.

It would require that you use WSE to perform the recording first but it sounds like this might work for you as an alternative to a mobile device uploading directly to S3.

Best regards,
Andrew
