Google cloud Tech expressed: What’s better than watching a livestream of a space launch? The ability to reach many users without hitting VM caps. With 1600+ nodes, learn how we brought Theta Network closer to its users.
Jieyi Long, Co-founder/CTO, Theta Labs, “Our partnership with Google Cloud has also let us reach viewers in regions that normally would have trouble accessing streaming video.”
Google cloud has published: A (visual) space odyssey: How Theta Labs reached the outer limits of video streaming.
As published on Google Cloud: “The Challenge Facilitating a livestream of a space launch with so many viewers requires a powerful infrastructure—one that’s scalable, reliable, and secure. Theta wanted to reach more users but needed to avoid hitting VM caps that previously caused issues with latency and the customer experience.
Benefits: Replacing customized scripts for analysis with BigQuery saved hours or even days of engineering time, and saved costs while improving performance.
Getting insights from data faster serves internal teams well and customers, too—Theta can now share engagement metrics with partners to help reach more audiences.
Running faster queries led to brand-new findings on viewership, bandwidth donations, and impactful moments during a livestream.
Theta’s migration took less than six months, with a return on investment almost immediately.”
“With Google Cloud’s over 1600 nodes, we are able to get closer to our users than ever before.” – Wes Levitt, Head of Strategy, Theta Labs.”
Community Reaction: It’s been great collaborating with you Google Cloud Tech, to next generation streaming + edge + cloud, fully decentralized powered by Theta Network.
1600 Google + Theta’s 100,000+ edge nodes = ?
We have a partnership with google and google cloud tech and were still under $10?
We mentioned in the last video I watched that theta could have sold out all of their Validator nodes to venture capitalists but they didn’t want to go that route. I think that they should sell one or two more to VC to keep happy and to increase staking.
Keep an eye on the guardian nodes. They are slowly decreasing. Either theta needs to drop the minimum amount to stake to like 500 coins. Other coins have bigger payouts as well I noticed. Another option can be to I cry the amount of Tfuel we get for staking. 21:1 ratio is high.
You guys are industry leaders in the wide growing space of Metaverse and the fun hasn’t even started yet.
My nodes are elite level uptime and ready for more service.
