Spark‘s Mid-stream Switching Technology

Traditional CDNs

Stream the entire video from one nearby server

Suffer from slow response times at peak hours, slow starts, high fail rates, more buffering, and slow handling of long tail content

Spark CDN

Starts streaming from fastest nearby server and continues streaming from lower-traffic servers

Faster start times, higher bitrates, less buffering, fewer failures, better long tail video, and lower costs

Spark CDN switcher makes that easy

Spark CDN multiplexer is based on actual user experience,
NOT generic network measurements
