Hey Luke, we're using Red5 solely for inbound recording traffic for our video uploading/recording/messaging system that launched at the end of May this year.

You can go to http://facebook.com/video/ to install the app if you haven't already, after which you can go record a video on the upload page or send a private message to another user and attach a video.

The webapp we wrote for this purpose is extremely simple and just does some basic authentication and POSTs the completed FLV file to a webserver that then processes it, adds metadata, generates thumbnails, etc.

We also have written a C++ version of flvtool2 which is over 50x as fast as the Ruby flvtool2. We'll be open sourcing that very soon.

I'll look into JMX, thanks. I'd love to hear more about improving stability as we do have issues with that from time to time. I see several hosts flapping a day right now and we end up needing to kill -9 the process and start it all over. I can provide some more data on that in a separate thread if you want to help :)

Hi Chris,

You can use JMX to get more info about a running instance of Red5.

Facebook using Red5 is quite cool news, can you give us some info on what you are using Red5 for. For instance is it for VOD or Live streaming. Are you using custom applications. Which protocols etc. If you are just using a subset of the functionality there may be ways to improve performance and stability.

Regards,
Luke

Hi,

We have deployed red5 on a tier of 80 machines, and are sometimes
having issues with the server crashing/locking up on a few hosts. Our
health checks are just basic TCP connects at the load balancer. Is
there a useful utility available for a smarter health check, perhaps
to see total active connections to the server, active webapps, etc?

Thanks,
Chris Putnam @ Facebook
