Peer-to-peer possibilities are now embedded in modern browsers thanks to technology like WebRTC. It enables browsers to talk with each other without needing any middlemen, like servers, to relay information. This has unlocked a number of fascinating possibilities, one of which we explore in this brand new episode. Shahar Mor from Peer5 joins us to explain how they are streaming data in a much faster and more scalable way than CDNs can do on their own.
