Build, Buy, or Embed: The Technical Decision Guide for Video Infrastructure

Every real-time video product runs the same six components — build, buy, and embed only change who operates each. This technical guide walks the stack, maps each path to the layers you own versus inherit, and covers the portability question that decides how hard it is to leave.
