Deploy LiveSwitch through the Linode Marketplace

LiveSwitch Server is a self-hosted WebRTC live video streaming platform. It provides high quality and reliable streaming for both audio and video media. Here’s more from the publisher:

LiveSwitch is the most flexible video and audio WebRTC SDK on the market. Ultra-low latency meets advanced features for engaging with your audience. LiveSwitch offers a complete solution (front-end and back-end) to develop commercial WebRTC applications.

This Marketplace App deploys a back-end demonstration server, running signalling, media, and TURN together on a single server. It is designed to be tested alongside the official client SDKs for .NET, .NET Core, iOS, Android, Xamarin, Maui, Unity and more. To download these SDKs, see the Client SDK page on the LiveSwitch Developer documentation site.

Deploying a Marketplace App

The Linode Marketplace lets you easily deploy software on a Compute Instance using Cloud Manager. See Get Started with Marketplace Apps for complete steps.

1. Log in to Cloud Manager and select the Marketplace link from the left navigation menu. This displays the Linode Create page with the Marketplace tab pre-selected.

2. Under the Select App section, select the app you would like to deploy.

3. Complete the form by following the steps and advice within the Creating a Compute Instance guide. Depending on the Marketplace App you selected, there may be additional configuration options available. See the Configuration Options section below for compatible distributions, recommended plans, and any additional configuration options available for this Marketplace App.

4. Click the Create Linode button. Once the Compute Instance has been provisioned and has fully powered on, wait for the software installation to complete. If the instance is powered off or restarted before this time, the software installation will likely fail.

To verify that the app has been fully installed, see Get Started with Marketplace Apps > Verify Installation. Once installed, follow the instructions within the Getting Started After Deployment section to access the application and start using it.

Configuration Options

• Supported distributions: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
• Recommended plan: All plan types and sizes can be used.

Getting Started after Deployment

After deployment, follow the instructions below to access your application.

Accessing the LiveSwitch App

1. Open your web browser and navigate to http://[ip-address]:9090/admin, replacing [ip-address] with your Compute Instance’s IP address or rDNS domain (such as 192-0-2-1.ip.linodeusercontent.com). See the Managing IP Addresses guide for information on viewing IP addresses and rDNS.

2. The Welcome setup wizard is displayed. Follow the prompts in this wizard to input your license key and create your user.

3. After completing the setup wizard, you should see the main Configuration Console for your installation. To learn more about how to manage your instance, see the Configuration Console documentation.

Now that you’ve accessed your LiveSwitch instance, check out the official LiveSwitch quick start documentation to learn how to further use your LiveSwitch instance.
