Limitation on using external Apache server

Hi,

I'm going to setup a web server for streaming h.264 video for flash player and ios device.

I know that I need the vod with HDS and HLS, and I don't need real live stream recording.

At this stage, I have configured my apache server and use modules in FMS.

I have referred to this document,

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/configadmin/WSd391de4d9c7bd6093a7e2f8312a374a1bde-8000.html#WS565cbb3ff5441e2614fa39ef13121395a10-8000

It seems works fine now.

Because I don't need to use FMS any more in my environment, what's the limitation I need to concern in terms of license, performance, etc. ?

You just need to point the httpd configuration HLSFmsDirPath and JitFmsDirPath to a location where your "licenses" folder is present. In case. modules are not able to pick the license, you will not be able to stream more than 30 minutes of video through HDS-VOD or HLS-VOD..

So, Do I purchase the license of "Flash Media Streaming Server" at here is good enough?

Yup, Flash Media Streaming Server should do. The comparison page http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/helpmechoose.html can give much detailed information.
