How to implement your own Cirrus server (formerly called Stratus)?

I am interested in creating a P2P application using Cirrus (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/cirrus/rtmfpgroups.html).

These examples create a connection to servers managed by Adobe.

I would like to do this on my Node.js server, how do I implement this? Or is Adobe forcing developers who use Cirrus to buy Flash servers?

Well, you can use this open source alternative https://github.com/OpenRTMFP/Cumulus . Another option would be to purchase Flash Media Enterprise Server, which is $ 45,000. The problem with the open source solution is that adobe contains some key patents for RTMFP, and they are known to apply them against open source, such as rtmfpDump ( http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/ ) - flash The open source movie is a “downloader,” so if your application becomes popular, adobe can take action.

However, the third option is to run an amazon instance for the flash server. They are quite expensive, but there are no initial fees http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/amazonwebservices/

Change It seems like they have significantly reduced the price of aws instances from the flash server since I last checked it, so you might want to explore this or the open source option if you are evaluating the risks of getting a DMCA. from adobe to low.
