Nimble Streamer hosting on unmetered bare-metal.
The lightweight streaming server that sips CPU and RAM — RTMP, SRT and HLS ingest and delivery on an unmetered 10 Gbit/s port. Restream, transcode and fan out to the edge without a Wowza-sized bill. Managed free with WMSPanel.
Why Nimble on Hostfory makes sense.
Nimble Streamer barely touches CPU or RAM, so the value is all in the pipe. An unmetered 10 Gbit/s port lets one cheap box fan out thousands of HLS viewers for a flat monthly price.
Pull a feed over SRT from a flaky remote link, republish clean HLS/RTMP. Direct peering keeps latency low and the packets intact.
Republishing a channel to multiple destinations multiplies your outbound. On a metered host that's a per-GB nightmare; here it's flat, unmetered, predictable.
Nimble does light transcoding on CPU; for a full ABR ladder attach a GPU node with NVENC and keep the Nimble box lean as a packager and edge.

Nimble deployed and tuned — RTMP/SRT/RTSP ingest, HLS/DASH output, DVR — with the free WMSPanel cloud management connected.
Ingest, restream and deliver at line rate for a flat monthly price — no per-GB egress, no cap.
SRT listener configured for contribution over lossy internet uplinks, with sensible latency and recovery defaults.
Add an RTX PRO 4500/6000 for NVENC transcoding when you need a full ABR ladder — Nimble stays lean as packager and edge.
Attach a Storage Vault to record channels and serve VOD without filling the app node's NVMe.
1.6 Tbit/s of always-on scrubbing in front of every ingest and edge.
Nimble Streamer hosting — lightweight streaming on unmetered bandwidth
Nimble Streamer is a lean, high-performance media server: it ingests RTMP, SRT and RTSP, republishes and packages to HLS and DASH, does DVR and light transcoding, and is managed free through the WMSPanel cloud. Its whole appeal is efficiency — it runs happily on a small box — which means the thing that actually matters for a Nimble deployment is the network it sits on.
Hostfory pairs that lean software with a fat, unmetered pipe. A single cheap box on an unmetered 10 Gbit/s port can fan out thousands of HLS viewers or restream a channel to several destinations for a flat monthly price, with none of the per-gigabyte egress a hyperscaler charges. SRT ingest is tuned for contribution over lossy uplinks, and when you need a full adaptive-bitrate ladder you add a GPU node with NVENC and keep the Nimble server lean as a packager and edge.
It's a single-tenant server in the location you choose — Amsterdam, Warsaw, Kyiv or Miami — provisioned in a couple of hours with Nimble installed, tuned and connected to WMSPanel. Pair it with a Storage Vault for DVR and VOD, and put more edge nodes in front as your audience grows.
