Managed, Monitored and Resilient Following with its commitment to innovating the future platform for live streaming, Wowza will unveil several new features to its managed Wowza Streaming Cloud service that improve overall monitoring and resiliency of streams. The intelligent monitoring solution provides an easy dashboard to evaluate stream health throughout the entirety of the streaming workflow, including formats and ingest; end-to-end latency and time to first frame; transcoder health; bitrates; and packet drops or failures.
