Hi there,

I’ll try to cover your questions in order:

Video Streaming: I would recommend starting with this page here:

https://www.digitalocean.com/solutions/streaming

It has some very useful information for video streaming apps and also a list of tools built for highly available streaming services. For the pricing, this will depend on the app size and the requirements, but I will suggest using this calculator here:

Storage Solution: DigitalOcean offers object storage service called Spaces, which is analogous to Amazon S3. It allows you to store and serve large amounts of data. Prices for DigitalOcean Spaces start at $5/month for 250 GB of storage and 1 TB of outbound transfer:

CDN: Yes, DigitalOcean does offer a CDN as part of the Spaces product. By enabling the CDN option, your data is cached across global edge locations to serve the data closer to users, reducing latency.

Hope that this helps!

Best,

Bobby
