Akamai CDN Integration | Streamcake Live Streaming

Feature

Secure Token URL Signing

Generates signed CDN URLs using secure token logic — replaces origin domains with Akamai security domains and appends authentication tokens as query parameters.

Multi-CDN Configuration

Supports multiple CDN configurations per service instance, each with independent domain mappings, signing keys, and security settings.

Domain-Based CDN Matching

Matches stream URL hosts against configured CDN ID domains to select the correct signing configuration automatically.

Security Domain Replacement

Replaces origin domains with Akamai security domains in signed URLs, enforcing authenticated delivery paths.

CDN Profile Management

Enumerates available CDN configurations for UI display and selection across the Streamcake dashboard.

Per-ID Security Overrides

Each CDN entry can override service-level security settings for signing key, secure domain, and token expiration.

Token Expiration Control

Configurable token TTL per CDN ID or service-level fallback, with method-level default when expiration is zero.

Bitrate Filtering

Optional minimum and maximum bitrate parameters on signed URLs for adaptive delivery control.

Signing Key Validation

Enforces a 32-byte minimum key length when UTF-8 encoded — returns null and logs an error if the signing key is too short.

CDN Bypass Mode

When CDN signing is disabled, the original stream URL is returned unmodified, allowing the same workflow to handle both signed and unsigned delivery.

Why it matters
