Zoom's own eCDN: one stream per office instead of a stream for every employee.
In a large webinar, each viewer normally pulls their own stream from the internet. A thousand people in an office means a thousand streams. Zoom Mesh changes the scheme: the stream arrives at several parent machines, which distribute it to everyone else inside the local network.
The arithmetic says it better than any words. Two thousand webinar participants at an average stream of 1 Mbps require a 2000 Mbps internet link. With Mesh, at fifty children per parent, only forty streams are needed — 40 Mbps. That is more than 90 percent saved.
In regular meetings the effect is more modest and depends on the size of the meeting and the layouts: Zoom estimates typical savings at 20–80 percent.
An important difference from third-party eCDNs: Mesh is built on the same platform and the same Zoom clients. There is no need to set up a separate broadcast layer and manage it separately.
The stream arrives at several machines and is distributed inside the network.
In a webinar for two thousand people you need 40 instead of 2000 Mbps.
Not just webinars: in meetings the savings are 20–80 percent.
The same clients and the same console, with no separate broadcast layer.
The speaker's stream is distributed, and each viewer chooses their own layout.
The main use case is company-wide broadcasts.
Internet bandwidth consumption on webinars for global offices had to be reduced.
