An API for MoQ: provision your own isolated relays

Cloudflare has introduced a new Media over QUIC (MoQ) provisioning API that adds isolation and access controls to its global MoQ endpoint, enabling users to create isolated relays and issue distinct credentials for publishers and subscribers. This update allows applications to leverage Cloudflare's network without the need for deploying specialized servers, offering a scalable and cost-effective solution for low-latency data streaming. The MoQ protocol, under development at the IETF, supports draft-14 and draft-16 versions with authentication, allowing relays to handle various data types like live video and messaging without needing to understand the data content. By enabling separate access tokens for publishers and subscribers, Cloudflare ensures secure and controlled data distribution, addressing confidentiality and access management concerns. The API is available for free in beta, with Cloudflare actively seeking feedback to refine its features and align with the broader MoQ community's needs.
