# Kinesis Video Streams Signaling Channel

Kinesis Video Streams Signaling Channel is an AWS resource that enables secure, real-time communication between applications using WebRTC. It provides the signaling infrastructure needed for peer-to-peer media streaming, such as video, audio, or data, without requiring a custom signaling service. This resource manages channel creation, configuration, and metadata to support low-latency, interactive streaming use cases like video conferencing, remote monitoring, or IoT device communication.
