If the HTTP streaming stack has largely consolidated, what could come next? Could Media over QUIC introduce a different transport model for large scale media distribution? What new experiences might session oriented delivery enable? And how close is the ecosystem to real production deployments? Let’s explore where MoQ may fit in the next phase of streaming architecture.

Five years have passed since our previous attempt to map the core technologies shaping streaming workflows. How much has the delivery stack actually changed? Has CMAF truly unified HLS and DASH in practice? Have low latency profiles such as LL HLS and L3D matured into reliable deployments? Which observability and control-plane systems have effectively moved into the core streaming infrastructure? Let’s dive in.
