Setting up and running live event streaming services to many simultaneous viewers is complicated, requires key operations equipment and skills and can have massive financial losses if the service fails during the event. During my interview with Bleuenn Le Goffic, VP Business Development at Accedo at the NAB Show, she explained to me that Broadcasters and TV streaming service providers that cover events need to have systems and staff who understand and are able to setup, manage and support a large number of viewers. Event media providers can have infrastructure limitations, issues with consumer devices and stream quality can be degraded. 

To ensure a reliable event streaming with thousands or even millions of live viewers, you need to evaluate and test infrastructure components prior to the event to identify potential bottlenecks and setup monitoring solutions to detect problems. During the event, you need proactive monitoring solutions to identify and address potential service risks. 

To solve this challenge, Accedo Live Events support service was created to reduce the risk of problems occurring during live event streaming by using a combination of pre-event planning and continuous monitoring to identify and address any potential issues before they are apparent to viewers.
