Operator11, a Hollywood-based live streaming startup (our coverage), has had repeated outages recently, as TechCrunch’s John Biggs complained this morning.
We contacted company president Jason Mitura, who attributed the outage to “growing pains.” A little reminder that web video is not an easy technical feat. His full explanation:
We had the perfect storm of technical meltdowns – the service was off line for about 48hrs.
When everything went down, we lost all access to our forums and email database thus couldn’t get anything out to our users in a timely manner. We’ve learned from the growing pains and are adding a level of redundancy on our key systems.
