Live streaming - what hardware/software is needed

Hi everyone!
I am asked to do live streaming from an event. There will be only one camera needed, what hardware and software do I need to have to make it reliable? (this cannot drop in a middle of the event!!)
Software wise, what platform would you recommend? I am based in Europe, live event shouldn't exceed 100 viewers each day (that's 5 day event).
Brightcove, Wowza, ustream?

When it comes to hardware, what sort of switch I will need? Do I need ATEM or there's some cheaper solution? Anything else will be needed? (reliable internet - of course)

I do own FS700 and GH4 I guess FS700 will be a better choice for that - but I will welcome some other opinions/advices.


Many, many thanks for help
 
Not sure if this is much help but I use at Teradek Vidu and depending on the client either go out on wifi at the location or cable ethernet or if needed 4G using my USB Stick. The Teradek Vidu is excellent and super easy to use. You can take advantage of several low cost or free streaming servers like UStream. If I can help you out just send me a pm.
