How AthletesGoLive Streams Millions of Amateur Sports Games with Wowza

When you’re streaming thousands of live games from venues with unpredictable network conditions, every part of your workflow has to work flawlessly. 

AthletesGoLive, a leader in amateur sports streaming, needed a solution that could deliver low-latency video, scale to peak weekend traffic, and integrate seamlessly with their real-time scoring platform. 

They found that solution in Wowza. 

   

The Challenge 

AthletesGoLive covers over 2.5 million games for 6,000+ teams and 4,000+ college coaches. Video engineers faced three big hurdles:
