How we scaled our ShoutCast hosting with Kubernetes
As our user base grew, our legacy infrastructure - based on manually managed VPS instances - began to show its limits. We needed a way to scale quickly, improve uptime, and simplify operations. That’s when we turned to Kubernetes.
Why my server is shutted down?
ShoutCast Starter plans are very popular because they are free of monthly charges. There are hundreds new streaming servers created every day. To make it possible and to ensure continuity of our service we needed to introduce some limitations in ShoutCast Starter plans. There are several possibilities described below why your servers could be disabled, all of them have been described in this article.
Uploading music to your AutoDJ
AutoDJ is a service that allows you to play music whole time without having turned on PC. You just need to upload your favorite music to our AutoDJ and it will play it for you. When the service is active and ready to use you just need to upload your audio files - it is quite simple to do - just need to use FTP software.
