"Google live stream - Scalable live streaming solutions for applications"
What do you like best about Google Live Stream API?

Scalability and reliability are the ultimate keys, which leverage the GCP's robust infra for high availability. Ato scaling handles variable audiences without service interruptions and offers CDN integration for ultra-low latency. Seamless integration with cross-platforms and works well with Google Cloud API's ecosystem. It supports secure transmission of video streams through DRM as well. Developer-friendly documentation makes it easier to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Live Stream API?

Highly dependent on Google Cloud services and limited flexibility require significant workarounds to use open source tools. The auto-scalable and pay-as-you-go model leads to some unwanted costs with the unusual spike in streaming users. and egress fees might add to the expense as well. Debugging would be hard if you are not familiar with the Google cloud tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
