Abstract
Systems and methods for providing a seamless automatic repeat request (ARQ) stream are provided. The system can include a plurality of streaming servers, a load balancer, and an ARQ streaming service. The ARQ streaming service obtains encoded content segments and transmits the segments to a plurality of streaming servers. The plurality of streaming servers is configured to transmit the encoded content segments to a client computing device, and a load balancer is implemented between the client computing device and the plurality of streaming servers. When the client computing device sends a response message to the ARQ streaming service while receiving the encoded content segments from one of the plurality of streaming servers, the ARQ streaming service may identify a failure in the streaming server. The ARQ streaming service retransmits lost encoded content segments by switching the streaming path to another streaming server from the plurality of streaming servers.
