ABOUT HLS - DEFINITION
▸ HTTP Live Streaming lets you send audio and video over HTTP from an ordinary web
server for playback on iOS-based devices—including iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple
TV—and on desktop computers (Mac OS X).
▸ HTTP Live Streaming supports both live broadcasts and prerecorded content (video on
demand).
▸ HTTP Live Streaming supports multiple alternate streams at different bit rates, and the
client software can switch streams intelligently as network bandwidth changes.
▸ HTTP Live Streaming also provides for media encryption and user authentication over
HTTPS, allowing publishers to protect their work.

The distribution component consists of standard web servers. They are responsible for accepting client
requests and delivering prepared media and associated resources to the client. For large-scale distribution,
edge networks or other content delivery networks can also be used.
