PeerTube Scalability

PeerTube is a free-libre and federated video platform that empowers anyone to self host video content without being isolated in the wide web. Many institutions have started using PeerTube to reclaim control over their video hosting. By choosing PeerTube, these institutions offer a wider audience the opportunity to familiarize themselves with PeerTube.

With this proposal, we want to improve PeerTube's scalability, allowing very large institutions to handle high traffic without additional costs. To achieve this, we plan to enhance PeerTube's performance by enabling it to run on multiple nodes and by addressing identified bottlenecks. We also want to improve user management to make it easier to moderate large-scale platforms, even with a limited moderation team. Finally, we plan to continue improving our mobile app to ensure it offers the same useful features as the web application.
