Implementation

1. User calls API to prcoess the video.
2. The API controller queues the event in a message queue (Kafka) and calls the given webhook.
3. A ZeStream worker polls the event from queue which contains file url
4. Worker fetches the file to local disk
5. Another worker starts a FFmpeg thread to process the video
6. Output is stored in local disk
7. After FFmpeg finishes processing, another worker pushes the files to cloud storage
8. CDN is connected to storage for fetching the files.
