100ms uses WebRTC-HLS to stabilize live classrooms
100ms addresses network issues in EdTech classrooms by utilizing both HLS and WebRTC technologies simultaneously. The company aims to enhance the live classroom experience at scale by combining these delivery methods.
Key Takeaways
- 100ms combines HLS and WebRTC in the same live classroom stack.
- The problem it addresses is network issues in typical EdTech classrooms.
- Those network issues can cause video quality degradation and AV problems for students.
Why It Matters
For EdTech live classrooms, the immediate implication is a delivery model designed to reduce the network-related video and AV issues students routinely experience. The broader ecosystem angle is that 100ms is using both HLS and WebRTC together rather than treating them as separate delivery paths, which points to a hybrid approach for classroom streaming at scale. What to watch next is whether 100ms publishes implementation details or performance results for the WebRTC-HLS stack in classroom deployments.
