I see the Disney service went live today, with some load issues according to various news reports and down detector. Is it well known where the newly released Disney+ streaming service content is sourced? Are they using their own servers on AS22604 or using one or more of the established CDNs? Or something combination or something else entirely?
As the service grows in popularity, and its breadth of content and manageable price is likely to attract a lot of growth, I'd like to plan for any necessary augmentations to the network. I have not yet seen a noticeable change in traffic trends locally but I am sure during the evening time it is likely to be more apparent where it all comes from.
Apropos of something, Sony has announce that it's pulling the plug on its PlayStation Vue Internet streaming TV service via the PlayStation PS4 platform, effective January 30, 2020. Might free-up some bandwidth for someone, somewhere... Ref: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/network/vue/faq/plan-updates/ - John --
