How Utkarsh Reduced Live Streaming Cost by 65% Using TPStreams?
Utkarsh Classes is one of India’s largest competitive exam preparation institutes, delivering large-scale live and hybrid learning across multiple states.With 800 daily live classes, streaming reliability and automation are critical to their operations.
The Challenges Utkarsh Faced
Utkarsh initially relied on AWS MediaLive for live streaming. As class volume increased, costs and operational complexity escalated rapidly.
Key Challenges:
- ₹22–24 lakh/month spent on live streaming alone
- High per-channel and per-minute AWS billing
- Difficult to automate 800 live sessions daily
- Operational overhead across multiple branches
Utkarsh needed a cost-efficient, API-driven, and scalable alternative.
The TPStreams Solution
Utkarsh migrated their live streaming pipeline from AWS MediaLive to TPStreams, while continuing to use AWS S3 + CloudFront for content delivery.
What TPStreams Delivered:
- Fixed per-hour live streaming cost
- Unlimited live channels for large-scale operations
- API-based automation for scheduling, start/stop, and VOD creation
- Instant VOD availability after live sessions
- Standardized workflows across all branches
Implementation
The integration was completed in phases—starting with a few classes per day and gradually scaling to 800+ live classes daily.
TPStreams APIs were integrated with Utkarsh’s LMS to fully automate:
- Live creation and scheduling
- Recording and VOD publishing
- Editing and student access
