Before AWS and AWS Elemental
• Ravensbourne provided Main and ‘Signed’ streams to a third party streaming provider
• Schools reported streaming issues• Not able to investigate viewing issues
• In the past, a social media platform was used for two broadcasts. Majority of schools were able to view without issue
• But some were not able to access this content (due to filtering)
