video-streaming's Introduction

Video Streaming mini-service

This is a simple TCP streaming service, using ZeroC Ice to provide communication between the components:

Portal, central management component, keeps track of which streams are active and provides updates on subscribed clients (using ZeroC Icestorm)
Streamer, transmits the stream to the connected clients
Client, subscribes to Portal to get information on available streams and can then connect to any of them

This project was an assignment for the Distributed Systems course.

To compile

$ ./gradlew compileSlice
$ ./gradlew shadowJar
