We have a camera which is trained on nesting wood ducks. Does your company support the resulting live feed?

Hello,

Thank you for your question about whether or not we can support your live stream. This depends on the amount of bandwidth you require. If you have a shared hosting account, your resource usage is monitored by our systems team. You may have enough resources available depending on what you need -- how many bits per second you hope to use, for example.

In a VPS/Dedicated hosting plan you have full access to all available resources.

We often recommend our customers use a third party service like YouTube for video broadcasts and paste a link to the YouTube video feed on their site. This means you would be using Google's resources rather than your own.

Best,
Christopher M.
