Professional Accounts Tech Specs

All StreamZilla CDN accounts offer the same technical specifications and performance. No compromises. The difference is in the volumes and volume rates.

 

The StreamZilla CDN accounts introduce high-end professional CDN services at low entry rates to mid-sized customers: companies, regional broadcasters, education, government, video professionals, startups and web designers.

 

Professsional CDN accounts are intended for projects up to 1TB storage and 10TB traffic per month. Do you plan to use more storage or traffic? Consider our High Volume CDN accounts.

True Streaming, all-formats & protocols

Most CDN's let you buy separate packages and bundles for each streaming protocol. For VOD streaming, for live streaming, for HTTP streaming and for progressive downloads. Some even charge you extra for statistics or for High Definition support. Other CDN's limit the number of streams or file sizes. Some CDNs don't even distribute via true streaming protocols. Not with StreamZilla: a professional CDN should be all-inclusive and 100% compliant:
