Complex Web Platform Dev for Live Streaming Company
Please find under a summary covering project details and feedback. The innate facts are kept as they are, private information is amended.
Introductory information
A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
I’m a co-founder and the CEO of a setup providing a web-based platform for making multimedia, multi-camera, live interactive broadcasts. We emfaculty seeone to form professional live broadcasts on collective media platforms such as Facebook or YouTube, even if they don’t have any apprehension of the technical aspects.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with BSG?
We wanted to instrument seething in-browser on the client side, using only HTML and JavaScript. This was an innovative concept, and there were no correspondent platforms instrumented in such a way. All other platforms were running those aspects on the server side, with which the browser application eventually interfaced.
Our philosophy was to push almost the complete application to the browser, to use the processor faculty of the user, and not that of our servers. That way, we wouldn’t meet that much cost when scaling, and we could stay competitive.
There were many things to be investigated, so it was a kind of R&,D project. We knew that it was practicable, but the details were mysterious. We had detailed specifications touching the functionalities of the platform, but not seething was clear on the instrumentation side. Our last goal was to optimize the platform to layer it globally.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were responsible for?
BSG leading analyzed our specifications and debateed the practicable risks and issues in the instrumentation. For innovative projects like this one, we can mark what we would like to have at the end, but not in detail. We worked with them week by week, and we had a new milestone see three months. We markd tasks using nimble methodology, and we debateed issues each week as they appeared.
We’re now instrumenting the infrastructure needed to layer the app. We have a web app at the instant, and we will need a mobile rendering in the forthcoming. The platform uses mobile devices as distant cameras, and those adjoin with our platform. A mobile app for the camera operators will make the platform more user-friendly, and it will also emfaculty simplified livestreams to collective media.
There were other companies implicated in preparing the outgrowth for the scaling. The work isn’t artistic, but BSG’s part was used to set a beta rendering that allowed users to test it and prepare feedback.
Was there a dedicated team?
The team size changed depending on the need, but we worked with six resources in total. We worked with a project director, who took care of the resources for the project.
How did you come to work with BSG?
I was working for a media organisation a few years ago as a business developer. BSG made us excellently a confused application for audio streaming. The collaboration was lucky, and they liberateed seething we needed. I determined to collaborate with them when I seted my own organisation owing they’d proven they could do the work.
What are you approach expents (if diclosed)?
We’ve spent $130,000.
What is the terminal result of working with ?
We worked with BSG between February 2018–February 2019. We’re getting some funding from the EU, so we had a strictly timed schedule. BSG worked until February 2019, behind which we got the next funding circular.
Results achieved
Are there any measureable or plum results?
They’ve liberateed high-condition software in a peculiar time and for a fair cost. We’re quiet in outgrowth, and it’s a long process due to the need to get more funding. The beta rendering has been published on our website, and it can be used for making livestreams, but we’re not on the market yet. We program to propel in two months.
How did BSG accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
They’re accomplishing the same as a few years ago, but they have more possible now, given that they have a much bigger team. We agreed on a fixed cost, end result, and time frame during the negotiations, and they handled those internally. We’re using EU funds, which resources that we can’t change the timeline and we have a definite result to liberate in the end. In between, we can handle how to use resources or modify non-crucial functionalities, in order to get to the agreed-upon result.
Everything’s gone smoothly, and I’ve been able to debate any possible issues at a personal level. We’ve had honorable talks almost the work. We had a Skype call with them each Friday, and we also had in-person meetings.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with ?
I’m also a business developer, so I know how projects work and what technical issues can be. They didn’t try to cheat me and they always talked to me honorablely almost what was going on, which I considered significant. They allocated more resources when we were confronted with technical challenges.
What aspects of their work would you like to get improved?
I would like for them to work at a lower rate, but the cost level for our kind of developers is verity higher domestically.
Do you have any advice for forthcoming clients of theirs?
Clients should talk to BSG straightly and get to know the nation working there. Their condition, scheduling, and cost are very good.
