Strimo is a production-grade video hosting and streaming platform designed to allow users to upload, manage, process, and stream video content securely and efficiently.
The platform is built as a scalable full-stack application that simulates how modern video platforms handle media management, authentication, content delivery, and user interactions in real-world production systems.
This project was developed as a final production-level engineering project with a focus on scalable architecture, clean code practices, maintainability, and real-world deployment standards.
Modern applications require reliable video infrastructure that supports secure uploads, efficient storage, adaptive streaming, user management, and scalable delivery.
Strimo solves this by providing a system where creators can manage video content while viewers can consume content through a fast and optimized streaming pipeline.
