Stream with HLS while recording to a custom S3 bucket using Daily

Daily has added support for multi-bitrate HLS when live streaming calls, allowing developers to stream and store recordings simultaneously on their own infrastructure. This feature gives users more control over how they stream, distribute, and store video, with benefits including lower storage costs, reduced latency, and increased flexibility. To use this feature, developers need to set up a CloudFront distribution with an S3 bucket, configure the HLS endpoint, and authenticate with AWS. The process involves generating private and public keys, setting up a CDN, configuring Daily's API, and starting the live stream. With this new feature, users can also store recordings in their own infrastructure, reducing reliance on external services.
