SRS can transform the RTMP to other protocols or deliveries, for example, RTMP Transcode, Snapshot, Forward to Other Servers, Transmux to HTTP-FLV, Transmux to HLS, Transmux to HDS, Transmux to DASH, DVR to FLV/MP4. SRS canbe used in CDN for large stream clusters, for example, RTMP ClusterOriginCluster, VHOST, Reload, HTTP-FLV Cluster. Futhermore, SRS provides apis, for example, HTTP Callback, Security, HTTP API, RTMP Bandwidth Test. There're lots of Applications in both CDN and origin servers.
