About

Peer5 develops CDN products that enable content providers to deliver video streams to their viewers faster and more reliably, while also shrinking their bandwidth costs and improving server scalability. The company focuses on live and VoD video streaming as well as audio streaming. Peer5 is building a decentralized hybrid server/P2P CDN that delivers content quickly and with remarkable resilience during times when servers feel stress. Due in part to revolutionary HTML5 and WebRTC technologies, Peer5 has been able to successfully create a P2P architecture that can be used directly in-browser without any clients or plug-ins.
