PROJECT 01 · MEDIA INFRASTRUCTURE

CDN++

Own the delivery path.

A vertically integrated platform for Live, FAST and VOD—from secure contribution and GPU processing to protected CMAF, memory-speed origin, edge caching and HTTP/3 delivery.

CDN++ preserves universal HTTP delivery while defining operator-local and 5MBS paths for dense, synchronized audiences. The page separates deployable platform capabilities from carrier-dependent integration.

The supplied WCPP source adds a code-backed media-service layer: multithreaded C++20/Crow routes for program-guide discovery, MongoDB catalog access, local artwork and HLS/MP4 asset delivery.

THE DELIVERY CHAIN

From contribution signal to the viewer—under one architecture.

The source documents describe a complete operating path, not an isolated cache. Each layer has a defined role in quality, security, latency and cost.

  1. 01
    Secure contribution

    Studios, satellite or IP feeds using SRT and other contribution protocols.

  2. 02
    GPU processing

    NVIDIA acceleration with FFmpeg, Python orchestration and proprietary C++.

  3. 03
    CMAF packaging

    HLS and DASH renditions prepared for heterogeneous networks and screens.

  4. 04
    Content protection

    DRM encryption and policy enforcement before distribution.

  5. 05
    Memory-speed origin

    Packages and playlists served from high-RAM origin infrastructure.

  6. 06
    Program + media API

    A reviewed C++20/Crow service exposes station, airing, artwork and HLS/MP4 delivery routes over MongoDB.

  7. 07
    HTTP/3 edge delivery

    NGINX, caching and QUIC transport deliver Live and VOD to client players.

  8. 08
    Operator integration

    Private interconnect, edge placement and a standards-aligned path toward 5MBS fan-out.

REFERENCE DISTRIBUTION MODEL

Economics that improve with scale.

The planning model uses one reference delivery rate for Live and VOD, then compares it with an illustrative traditional-CDN benchmark.
