Abstract
Techniques are described for automatically migrating client devices away from unreliable origin stacks in ways that mitigate potentially negative impacts on the user experience. Multiple origin stacks are provisioned in parallel to provide encoded versions of the same broadcast content for streaming to client devices. Each of the origin stacks is monitored to ensure that it is operating correctly. When an origin stack fails or becomes unreliable, each of the client devices involved in a session corresponding to the unreliable stack is provided with the information it needs to establish a new session corresponding to another one of the stacks.
