Currently, publicly available wifi hotspots are the preferred networks for video consumption, but poor network infrastructure also leads to unbearable video buffering and latency. However, OTT streaming delivery requires something faster than what the internet offers in terms of how chunks/fragments are supposed to flow.

Central to this infrastructure is our use of multiple online distributed databases such as Apache Cassandra , a NoSQL database known for its high availability and scalability. It also serves as central configuration of access patterns such as consistency or latency targets. Useful for keeping “n-newest” or prefix path deletion.

In the age of big-data-turned-massive-data, maintaining high availability , aka ultra-reliability, aka ‘uptime’, has become “paramount”, to use a ChatGPT word. So when they don’t get one, they ask again — and again… and again… We thus have two compelling reasons for why high availability is so important: 1. What is high availability?
