Oracle Media Services in Streamcake: distribution channels with OCI Edge or Akamai CDN, HLS/DASH packaging with optional AES-128, media assets from Object Storage playlists, and ordered delete steps.
Streamcake integrates with Oracle Media Services via the OCI Media Services SDK for streaming distribution: CreateDistributionChannel with CDN type OCI_EDGE or AKAMAI; ConfigureDistributionPackaging for HLS or DASH with segment duration and NONE or AES128 encryption using OCI KMS; CreateMediaAsset for playlist objects in OCI Object Storage; IngestPlaylistAsset attaches the asset to the channel and generates session-token preview URLs; GeneratePlaylist for raw playlist content; ActivateStream promotes preview URL to an Active HLS stream URL. Cleanup: ordered delete steps for channel, CDN config, packaging, and media asset.
