Summary

Daily has introduced live streaming capabilities for its paid accounts, allowing customers to broadcast their events with low latency, ranging from 3 to 20 seconds. This feature is now available via RTMP (Real-Time Messaging Protocol) streaming, which can be consumed by various existing solutions such as Amazon IVS. With Daily's live streaming, customers can customize their experience with multiple video feeds and full HD resolution, making it ideal for events like live classes, concerts, and large business meetings. To get started, customers need a Daily account, an AWS account, and a few other requirements, which are outlined in the tutorial provided by Daily. The tutorial demonstrates how to embed a Daily call with live streaming using Amazon IVS's player SDK, allowing users to play back their live stream with incredibly low latency of 2 to 5 seconds.
