Functions

Huawei Cloud Live provides a range of live functions, such as stream pushing, livestreaming, recording, and transcoding. These functions make Live an ideal option for many latency-sensitive scenarios, such as online education and interactive entertainment. For details, see Table 1.

**Table 1** Functions
Category	Function	Description
Stream pushing	Protocol	RTMP push and streaming audio or video
	Method	Stream pushing using third-party software such as Open Broadcaster Software, XSplit, and FMLE
	Uplink acceleration	Uplink acceleration, user access point/device scheduling (DNS/HTTP DNS), access control, and auto scaling for live video
Live streaming	Protocol	RTMP, HTTP-FLV, and HLS
	Method	Playback using third-party software such as VLC
	Downlink acceleration	Downlink acceleration, user access point/device scheduling (DNS/HTTP DNS), access control, and auto scaling for live video
Live stream processing	Recording	You can record live streams in HLS, FLV, or MP4 format and store the recordings in OBS.
	Transcoding	You can transcode live streams into different specifications using H.264, H.265, or low bitrate HD transcoding.
	Snapshot capturing	You can capture snapshots from live streams and save JPG snapshot files in OBS buckets.
	Latency	You can modify the stream latency.
	Origin pull	You can pull live content from your own origin server to the Live center for fast delivery.
Live stream management	Method	You can manage live streams on the Live console or by calling APIs.
Live console	Dashboard	You can view the downstream traffic and peak downstream bandwidth on the current day. You can change the CDN billing option.
	Streaming management	You can view ongoing streams and disabled streams.
	Domain name management	You can add, delete, disable, and enable ingest domain names and streaming domain names. You can associate an ingest domain name with or disassociate it from a streaming domain name. You can configure transcoding, snapshot capturing, and stream status notifications for ingest domain names, and stream authentication. You can configure the origin pull settings, HTTPS certificate, latency, URL validation, referer validation, and access control lists (ACLs) for streaming domain names.
	Statistics	You can view statistics, including the downlink bandwidth, downlink traffic, number of online viewers, uplink bandwidth, number of channels, duration of transcoded outputs, number of recording channels, number of snapshots, and status codes.
	Stream analytics	You can view the historical stream pushing records, frame rate, and bitrate of a single live stream.
	Log management	You can view logs about requests to a streaming domain name and download logs over the past 14 days.
	OBS authorization	You can authorize Live to store captured snapshots in OBS buckets.
	Tools	You can quickly generate signed URLs for streaming and ingest domain names.
Access control	URL authentication	You can configure an authentication key to verify requests.
	Referer validation	You can configure a referer blocklist to identify and filter out unauthorized access.
	Access control list (ACL)	You can configure an IP address blocklist to identify and filter out unauthorized access.
	HTTPS secure acceleration	You can use the certificate of a streaming domain name to configure and deploy HTTPS for all CDN nodes on the network so live streaming acceleration will be secure.
APIs	Domain name management	You can create, delete, modify, and query domain names. You can create and delete the mapping between a streaming domain name and an ingest domain name.
	Transcoding	You can query, modify, create, and delete transcoding templates.
	Stream management	You can query and modify the status of streams and query live acceleration data.
	Log management	You can query live streaming logs.
	Recording management	You can create, query, and delete recording templates, and record live streams to OBS.
	Recording callback management	You can create, delete, and modify a recording callback, and query details of a recording callback. You can query the list of recording callbacks.
	Statistical analysis	You can query traffic or bandwidth data, and peak bandwidth in a specific period.
	Stream analytics	You can view the frame rate and bitrate of a single live stream.
