MOQ at the NAB Show 2026: What to Look For Across the Show

Media over QUIC (MOQ) is emerging as a significant topic at the NAB Show 2026, with numerous companies showcasing real-world demos of the protocol across various booths, demonstrating its applicability beyond theoretical discussions. These demos, presented by companies like Ant Media, AWS, Bitmovin, Broadpeak, and others, highlight different implementations of MOQ in live streaming, emphasizing aspects such as scale, latency, and interoperability. Key demonstrations include collaborative efforts by companies like Bitmovin and Cloudflare, which use a global relay network for real-time playback without custom integrations, and Red5's comparison of MOQ with other streaming protocols to showcase latency and performance differences. The event also features a free session at the NAB Streaming Summit, where members of the OpenMOQ Software Consortium discuss the development and deployment of high-performance MOQ software, exploring new opportunities and challenges in the field. Attendees are encouraged to engage directly with developers and continue discussions at the Streaming Summit Mixer Party, providing insights into the current and future landscape of MOQ technology.
