A cleaner origin handoff
Relay a single live source to CDN or origin endpoints while keeping production encoders focused on just one inbound connection — tidy in, tidy out.

Akamai restreaming FAQs
The questions we get asked most about streaming to Akamai with Stream Repeater.
Can Stream Repeater relay to an Akamai ingest endpoint?
Yes. Add your Akamai RTMP, RTMPS or SRT ingest URL as a custom destination and Stream Repeater relays a copy of your feed to it alongside your other platforms.
Why relay to a CDN like Akamai?
