What is Wowza?

Wowza positions itself for builders rather than end-business operators, leading with a dedicated developer section offering documentation, APIs, tools, test players and a community rather than a purely sales-driven homepage. Wowza Streaming Engine powers high-performance streaming in the cloud, on-prem, hybrid, and at the edge, while the Wowza Video Intelligence Framework turns live video into real-time action on infrastructure a customer already owns.

That infrastructure-layer focus distinguishes Wowza from the fuller OTT platform builders elsewhere in this category: it is closer to the plumbing a streaming business runs on than a finished subscriber-facing product. Teams wanting to build custom streaming applications rather than adopt a ready-made platform are Wowza's natural audience.
