We are pleased to announce the launch of the Sirius Stream service layer on the ProximaX Sirius platform test network. This launch includes a software development kit (SDK) and a proof of concept application.
What is Sirius Stream?

Sirius Stream is a fully anonymous, end-to-end encrypted messaging and video streaming protocol and framework. This service layer utilizes the Sirius Stream Protocol (SSP) for secure and high performance real-time messaging and streaming services.

Sirius Stream has two core services:

Storage Streaming
Storage streaming is an extension of the Sirius Storage service layer that enables platform users to stream pre-recorded content (e.g., movies and videos). Solution providers can use the service to power a Netflix or YouTube type app.

Live Streaming
Live streaming is an independent streaming service layer that utilizes Sirius Chain for identification and incentivization. It allows for real-time broadcasting and sharing of content (e.g., chat, phone calls, and video conferencing), which forms the basis for short text messaging and multimedia or hybrid systems, like WhatsApp and Zoom.

Sirius Stream is a service that allows streaming through an open node ecosystem. Like Sirius Storage, it will also come with different system actors to facilitate a secure and performant service. The network incentivizes public nodes to provide a streaming service.  According to free-market principles, streaming nodes are selected by the system, taking into account node reputation and a selection mechanism.
