Setting up a live streaming server that will stream to a web page in real time. Can this be done with a droplet?

Are there any users here that have set up your own private live stream server?

Thanks

Hello,

Yes, this is doable. With all DigitalOcean Droplets you would have root access, meaning that you can install and configure any services that you need.

Depending on your needs to you could use a tool like LiveSwitch server and install it with 1-Click:

Or you can take a look at the following solutions page:
