Revolutionary combined solution brings sub-second latency, resilient delivery, and workflow orchestration to global broadcasters and digital platforms
Layercake today announced a strategic integration between its Streamcake platform and Ceeblue’s Media Fabric, a leader in real-time video streaming technology, to deliver a fully orchestrated, end-to-end streaming solution combining advanced workflow automation with ultra-low latency delivery. Layercake will demonstrate this new solution at NAB Show 2026 on the Grass Valley Booth C2408.
This integration combines Streamcake’s orchestration and automation capabilities with Ceeblue’s WebRTS-based streaming technology, enabling customers to deploy, manage and scale live video workflows with sub-second end-to-end latency. It maintains the structure and reliability of standard streaming infrastructure, including CDNs, DRM providers and video players.
At the core of the solution is Ceeblue’s real-time streaming technology, designed to deliver live video in under a second at global scale while maintaining broadcast-grade quality, stability and security over traditional video flows. Streamcake enhances this by providing intelligent orchestration across ingest, processing, delivery, and failover, creating a unified platform for mission-critical streaming use cases.
This partnership addresses a persistent challenge in live streaming: how to reduce latency without introducing operational complexity or requiring specialised delivery environments.
Ultra-Low Latency Meets Intelligent Orchestration
The integrated solution enables:
- Sub-second live streaming with consistent high quality and no buffering
- Automated workflow orchestration across ingest, transcoding, packaging, and delivery
- Real-time adaptability to network conditions and infrastructure changes
- Multi-format ingest (RTMP, SRT, WebRTC, WHIP, RTSP) and viewer outputs across HLS, LL-HLS, DASH, CMAF, WebRTC, and WebRTS
- DRM support for premium content protection
- Traditional CDNs used for low-latency delivery
- No video player lock-in
Ceeblue’s WebRTS framework ensures sub-second latency while maintaining compatibility with standard, WebRTS-Certified CDNs, solving the traditional trade-off between latency and scalability.
Rather than treating low latency as a separate workflow, the integration embeds it directly into standard streaming operations.
WebRTS-Certified CDNs
- Fastly
- Akamai
- Orange CDN
- CDN77
- Bunny.net
- Varnish CDN (or any Varnish Enterprise CDN)
- Transparent Edge
- Medianova
Built for High-Stakes, Real-Time Use Cases
The combined Streamcake and Ceeblue solution is purpose-built for industries where latency, reliability and precision are critical, including:
- Live sports broadcasting
- Sports betting and iGaming
- Live auctions and commerce
- Corporate communications and large-scale events
By eliminating delay and ensuring synchronisation across all delivery paths, the platform enhances viewer engagement, reduces operational risk, and unlocks new interactive experiences.
The platform also includes automated recording to storage and instant VOD replay URL generation, ensuring live events translate seamlessly into on-demand content without manual intervention.
A New Standard for Live Streaming Infrastructure
“By integrating Ceeblue’s ultra-low latency streaming with Streamcake’s orchestration capabilities, we are redefining what is possible in live video delivery,” said Domenic Romeo, CTO at Layercake. “This solution gives customers full control over their streaming workflows while ensuring the highest levels of performance and resilience.”
“Streamcake provides the orchestration layer that complements our real-time streaming technology perfectly,” said Lawton Cheney, CCO at Ceeblue. “Together, we enable customers to deliver truly real-time experiences at scale, with seamless failover and broad device support.”
Availability
The integrated Streamcake and Ceeblue solution is available immediately to customers worldwide.
Ceeblue and Layercake will be holding a dedicated “office hour” at the Grass Valley Booth C2408 on Monday April 19 at 11am.
