Case Study: 17LIVE achieves glitchless, scalable live streaming with Google Cloud Platform

17LIVE Offering glitchless and diverse live streaming services through cloud infrastructure and AI

17LIVE, a Taiwan-based live streaming company with more than 50 million registered users in 133 countries, needed to scale its platform, reduce latency, and improve data-driven decision-making as traffic grew. It turned to Google Cloud Platform, using services such as Google Kubernetes Engine, BigQuery, Cloud CDN, and Vertex AI to support its global streaming operations and analytics.

Google Cloud Platform helped 17LIVE build a highly scalable, low-latency infrastructure that can handle instant traffic surges and up to two million concurrent viewers. The company shortened feature deployment time by 80%, reduced Taiwan network latency from 300 ms to 50 ms, cut streaming-related issues by 40%, and used Vertex AI to predict system errors 30 minutes in advance, improving stability and user experience.
