Tech Papers 2026: The paper examines web traffic for large live OTT scales, detailing how they should be treated as behavioural forecasting plus resilience control.
Abstract:
Large live OTT events are not ordinary web traffic at larger scale. Viewers join around fixed moments, and control-plane services such as authentication, entitlement, DRM, playback URL generation, advertising and telemetry can see synchronised demand that reactive autoscaling cannot absorb quickly enough.
