WMSPanel team continues analyzing the state of streaming protocols. April had less views than March but the same share of protocols.
The metrics calculations are based on nearly 1.5 billion views, which is twice less than previous month. The stats are collected from 1700+ media servers (including Wowza, Nimble Streamer and Flussonic) so we consider May was a bit "relaxed" comparing to April for our customers. Also, we introduced HTTP origin for "CDN-friendly" outgoing streaming which was adopted by our key customers - this affected stats as well. However, the picture remained pretty much the same.
HLS share went down to 72% share while Icecast and MPEG-DASH numbers increased. Check the chart below for more numbers.
You can compare that to April stats below.
