Abstract: 

The usage of the Web has experienced a vertiginous growth in the last few years. Watching video online has been one major driving force for this growth lately. Until the appearance of the HTML5 agglomerate of (still draft) specifications, the access and consumption of multimedia content in the Web has not been standardized. Hence, the use of proprietary Web browser plugins flourished as intermediate solution.
With the introduction of the HTML5 video element, Web browser plugins are replaced with a standardized alternative. Still, HTML5 video is currently limited in many respects, including the access to only file-based media. This paper investigates on approaches to develop video live streaming solutions based on available Web standards. Besides a pull-based design based on HTTP, a push-based architecture is introduced, making use of the WebSocket protocol being part of the HTML5 standards family as well. The evaluation results of both conceptual principles emphasize, that push-based approaches have a higher potential of providing resource and cost efficient solutions as their pull-based counterparts.
