2 open-source projects that already do this job. Free to use - not free to run, which is what the numbers on the right are for.

What you give up either way
- Commercial SLA, enterprise support, and an audited uptime guarantee
- Global autoscaling and multi-region failover out of the box
- DDoS protection and carrier-grade peering/egress optimizations
- Polished multi-tenant dashboard, billing, and usage analytics
- Legal/compliance packaging and responsibilities the vendor may provide
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches RTMPS.IO, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
