A streaming server is a dedicated server with fast internet, made for live video. It runs your streaming software all day and night, so your stream never depends on your home internet. The whole machine is only yours, so no one else uses its processor or its connection.
Who needs a streaming server?
- 24/7 channels on YouTube, Twitch, Facebook or Kick that must never stop.
- Restreaming: sending one stream to many websites at the same time.
- TV and radio style channels that play a list of videos non-stop.
- Many streams at once — too many for a VPS to handle.
Streaming server or streaming VPS?
For one or two streams, a streaming VPS is enough and costs much less. Choose a dedicated streaming server when you run many streams, stream in very high quality, or need the whole connection only for you.
What to tell us when you ask for a price
- How many streams you run at the same time.
- The quality (for example 1080p or 4K) and the bitrate, if you know it.
- Which websites you stream to, and where your viewers are.
- The software you use — OBS Studio, FFmpeg, vMix or other.
Streaming server questions
How much data does 24/7 streaming use?
One 1080p stream at 6 Mbps uses about 2 TB of data a month if it runs all the time. Every extra stream adds more. We size the connection and data for your streams.
Can I use OBS on the server?
Yes. With Windows you can use OBS Studio just like on your own computer. With Linux you can use FFmpeg or OBS.
Can I pay from Pakistan?
Yes. You can pay with JazzCash, EasyPaisa, SadaPay, NayaPay, bank transfer, cards, USDT or crypto.
