During ANGA COM 2025, our COO Tassilo Raesig sat down with CSI Magazine at the MainStreaming booth to discuss how we're helping broadcasters and sports platforms deliver high-quality live video experiences at scale, and why our edge-native, European-built infrastructure is designed for the future of streaming.
Powering the World’s Most Demanding Live Events
MainStreaming supports major sports broadcasters like DAZN and RAI in delivering some of the world’s most-watched live events. As Tassilo explained, these platforms rely on our edge-based video delivery architecture to ensure consistent Quality of Experience (QoE) for millions of simultaneous viewers, especially during peak times when every second counts.
Our infrastructure is purpose-built for video, allowing us to deliver content with low latency, from the closest possible point to the end user.
A Network Designed for Video — Not Just the Internet
The internet wasn’t designed with video in mind. That's why MainStreaming works hand-in-hand with ISPs to increase available capacity where it matters most: inside the network. By bringing content deeper into the ISP infrastructure, we ensure faster, more reliable delivery, even during traffic spikes.
Intelligent Hybrid Infrastructure: Private Meets Public
A major advantage of our solution is our Hybrid infrastructure model. We offer broadcasters dedicated Private capacity to guarantee performance for mission-critical live events, with the ability to overflow into our Public edge network during unexpected peaks. This approach combines control, flexibility, and scale, all customized to our partners’ unique requirements.
Customization, Not One-Size-Fits-All
Customization is at the heart of what we do. Every broadcaster and platform has different delivery needs, and we tailor our infrastructure to match. From event-specific configurations to long-term deployments, our tech and support teams collaborate closely with each partner to optimize outcomes.
Supporting Europe’s Digital Sovereignty
Tassilo also highlighted an increasingly strategic issue: data sovereignty. Today, many broadcasters rely on U.S.-based companies for their IP video delivery, but this comes with potential regulatory and geopolitical risks.
MainStreaming is proud to be a European company and part of the Euro-Stack initiative, supporting digital sovereignty for European media organizations. Our partnerships with local ISPs, including DTAG, ensure that data remains within Europe’s regulatory frameworks, offering broadcasters peace of mind and compliance with regional standards.
