Interesting that "but a particular session can only be hosted by one instance"

Why is that? Is that a protocol issue with WebRTC or an implementation issue with the way WebRTC servers are written?

There are lots of ways to share session state across servers.

To build this quickly I would chain Broadcast Box instances. Have it look like a n-ary tree and spin up another broadcast box instance when you need it.

`OBS -> Broadcast Box -> Broadcast Box -> Broadcast Box -> Viewer`

To start I would do WHIP between the servers as well. More optimization can be done, but it would be a good quick start.
