Case Study: Mississippi Department of Transportation streamlines statewide traffic video with Wowza Video

How MDOT Streamlines Statewide Traffic Video with Wowza Streaming Engine

Mississippi Department of Transportation needed a reliable way to manage more than 1,150 statewide traffic cameras and deliver mission-critical video to operators, first responders, and the public. With Wowza Video’s Wowza Streaming Engine, MDOT could centralize camera inventory, automate health checks, and reduce manual intervention while keeping video streams dependable at scale.

Wowza Video implemented an API-driven, regionally distributed streaming architecture that automatically provisions, rebuilds, and moves camera feeds across regional servers. The solution helped MDOT streamline operations, cut late-night incidents, and achieve predictable capacity of about 100 cameras per server, with roughly 200 streams per node, while perimeter caching improved bandwidth efficiency and circuit utilization.
