The Solution: nanoStream – Fast, Secure, and Seamless
Get Visual teamed up with nanocosmos to tackle their toughest streaming challenges head-on. Together, they built a powerful corporate event streaming workflow that consistently delivers sub-second latency, high-quality viewing experiences, and rock-solid reliability, all while meeting strict GDPR compliance requirements. As a result, this combination makes it possible to broadcast interactive events to audiences around the world—securely, smoothly, and at scale.
Here’s how nanoStream makes it possible:
- Ultra-low latency streaming, now also powered by Media over QUIC (MOQ), ensures real-time interaction for Q&A, live discussions, and executive communication.
- Global footprint to reach viewers everywhere, and with efficient scaling for their events, from 50 to 3,000+ viewers worldwide.
- Seamless API integration allows Get Visual to embed nanoStream directly into their internal tools and event platform.
- White-label customization gives clients a fully branded, professional viewing experience.
- Flexible quality profiles allow stream operators to choose the best output for each event.
Analytics & Quality Control & Quality Monitoring
With nanoStream Analytics, Get Visual monitors ingest and playout performance, ensuring consistency and enabling rapid issue resolution.
“We use metrics to monitor ingest and live playout for consistency and troubleshooting if needed. In the future, we will use analytics to generate a more detailed statistics report for our customers, compared to our in-house developed solution.”
GDPR and Security for Sensitive Corporate Events
The fact that nanocosmos is based in Germany and provides GDPR-compliant services was a key factor in Get Visual’s decision to select nanoStream as their streaming solution.
For events involving confidential reports or internal communications, Get Visual uses nanoStream’s security features:
- Webhooks for ingest authentication
- Playback tokens for secure viewer access
This gives clients confidence that their content remains protected and compliant with corporate privacy requirements.
Reliability in Action: Dual‑Stream Setup for Uninterrupted Service
To ensure uninterrupted broadcasting, even under unpredictable network conditions, Get Visual employs a robust dual‑stream setup:
- Primary stream on a wired connection
- Backup stream on a 5G connection, running on an independent nanoStream server
The configuration mentioned above ensures that if the primary connection drops, the backup takes over immediately, keeping the event running seamlessly.
“nanoStream provides a very stable solution. Running two streams simultaneously on different server centers allows us to ensure uninterrupted service—something that’s crucial for our customers.
Furthermore, the close collaboration and single‑point‑of‑contact support model provided by nanocosmos further strengthens Get Visual’s high‑reliability production approach.
Live Video Processing: Extending Engagement Beyond the Event
nanoStream’s video processing tools—including automatic thumbnails, motion‑based clips, live replay, and recording—allow Get Visual to instantly repurpose content and extend the event’s impact beyond the live experience.
Live Caption & Translation for Global Accessibility
Global organizations need accessible and inclusive communication. Get Visual is now testing nanocosmos’ Live Caption and Translation tool to ensure their events remain interactive and accessible across languages.
“We are excited to use this new tool, as it will help us improve global event accessibility while maintaining real‑time interaction.”
