On February 25, Matt Stagg will moderate a Streaming Media Connect panel titled “Peak Performance: Handling Traffic Spikes for Global Live Sports Streams.” The discussion brings together senior engineers from TATA Communications, BT Group, and DAZN to dissect how leading platforms prepare for sudden, massive viewership surges. Panelists will share tactics such as intelligent load‑balancing, real‑time monitoring, advanced failover, and BT’s Multicast‑Assisted Unicast Delivery (MAUD). The session promises practical guidance for building streaming stacks that assume chaos rather than merely adding CDN capacity.

Git‑driven environments treat infrastructure as code, storing full stack definitions in version‑controlled repositories. This eliminates environment drift by making every branch a deployable, production‑aligned preview environment. Changes to services, routes, or runtime versions are reviewed through pull requests, providing an...
