A video sharing service allows individuals to upload video clips to an
Internet website. The video host will then store the video on its
server, and show the individual different types of code to allow others
to view this video. The website, mainly used as the video hosting
service, is usually called the video sharing website.
There are
plenty of open source and paid video sharing scripts available in
market, You must consider some important points before you select video
sharing script for your business.
Script Security
When
you talk about uploading video files that itself makes it clear -
hackers have option to upload malicious scripts and hack the script or
server in large.
Make sure the script that you select is
professionally designed and well coded to nullify the hacking attempts.
Now its not just script it could be hosting environment too which can
allow hackers to gain access for example -
1) Register_Globals ON - This is big security hole - Infrenion has all servers with register_globals OFF.
2) Permission Issues - (A common issue with hosting companies running PHP as Apache Module)
Infrenion
runs php in secure environment for joomla accounts - We have installed
suPHP which completely resolves permission issues.
Script Functionality
Please
check if the script has all functions that is needed for video sharing
website for example the core functions of any video sharing script are
uploading video files, converting videos to flash, displaying videos.
Script Scalability
Video
Sharing sites generally attracts large internet traffic - If your video
script is poorly coded it can cause high server loads. You should make
sure the script you select is scalable and can sustain high traffic
loads.
Script Performance
Script performance depends
mainly on hosting plan that you choose. Double check the script
technical requirements if they are satisfied by your host.You should
select reliable host with good uptime guarantee and knowing its video
site you should choose plan with large space and bandwidth. Video
sharing sites requires large resources as it takes uploading files,
converting to flash & displaying it. That's a hefty task for a
server. |
