OllaNode is a self-hosted infrastructure platform for video, CDN, storage and edge compute — giving developers complete control over how their applications are built, delivered and scaled.
Everything works together. Everything runs on you.
Building modern video and media applications shouldn't mean stitching together a dozen expensive SaaS vendors or surrendering control of your data and bandwidth. OllaNode provides a unified, self-hosted platform where video processing, CDN delivery, storage, DNS, and edge compute run directly on hardware you control.
Replace fragmented SaaS vendors with a unified DDD Rust core. Transcoding, storage, CDN delivery, DNS, and edge isolates work together natively without third-party API dependencies or sync delays.
Run on your own bare-metal or cloud servers. OllaNode is self-hosted software with no billing system, no per-minute transcoding fees, and no per-gigabyte bandwidth surcharges.
API-first architecture with OpenAPI 3.1 definitions, Model Context Protocol (MCP) support, approval-gated actions, capability maps, and tamper-evident audit logging.
Engineered on battle-tested, permissively-licensed open source — every component is auditable, with no AGPL and no vendor lock-in.
A unified control plane that orchestrates media transcoding, storage, and global CDN delivery on your own infrastructure — with zero third-party vendor lock-in.

Edge Pull Zones
4K Playback + MCP
All long-running work is async and runs in worker pools, never in request handlers. Once an upload completes, OllaNode automatically validates media integrity, extracts metadata, transcodes video into adaptive HLS ladders, generates thumbnails and word-level transcripts, stores assets in your object storage, and emits HMAC-signed webhooks.
A global edge network and powerful infrastructure to store, optimize and deliver your content with ultra-low latency.
Multi-tenant pull zones at the edge, routed by Host with origin shielding.
Object-storage zones with presigned upload and signed on-the-fly image optimizer.
Serves your zones and records (A/AAAA/CNAME/TXT/MX/NS) straight from the database.
Deploy JS/TS and run it at the edge in a sandboxed isolate — no cold container.
Multi-tenant caching with sub-150ms instant worldwide cache invalidation.
Automated Layer 3/4/7 threat mitigation with rate limiting and origin cloaking.
Agents are API-first citizens with built-in governance. They discover their own capabilities via /v1/whoami, run standard actions freely, but route destructive operations through human approval — backed by a tamper-evident audit trail and a project kill-switch.
Agents run read & standard write requests freely within scope (GET /v1/videos, POST /v1/uploads) without human intervention.
Destructive mutations (DELETE /v1/videos, POST /v1/functions) return 202 Pending Approval and require human sign-off with an X-Approval-Id digest.
Every mutation logs prev_hash/entry_hash integrity in an immutable chain (/v1/audit/verify), with instant project-wide revocation (/v1/admin/disable-agents).
Triggered by Transcoding AI Agent (mcp_video_optimizer). Requires human authorization digest (X-Approval-Id) before executing destructive mutation.
Clear answers on platform boundaries, licensing, pricing, and infrastructure architecture — straight from the official source.
No — it's a VOD pipeline only. There's no live / RTMP ingest. OllaNode is purpose-built for rock-solid on-demand transcoding, asset generation, private origin shielding, and edge delivery.
HLS today. Segments are already CMAF/fMP4 (DASH-ready packaging); a DASH manifest is the remaining piece. It delivers an adaptive resolution ladder from 360p up to 4K.
It's self-hosted software you run on your own hardware. There's no billing system and no metered plans — the cost is your infrastructure.
AI metadata, speaker diarization, GPU-accelerated H.265, loudness normalization and an AV1 tier are all real but config/hardware-gated and off by default.
Apache-2.0, with permissive-OSS-only dependencies (no AGPL) — every component is permissively licensed and auditable.
Machine-readable at GET /openapi.json (OpenAPI 3.1), with MCP (Model Context Protocol) for agents and full /v1/whoami capability inspection.
Ownership-first software. You bring the VMs and storage, OllaNode provides the platform control plane.
No — agent keys are structurally prevented from holding admin, managing credentials, or accessing billing. Destructive mutations require explicit human approval.
