Delivering dynamic media content to a client on a client device. The method includes storing segments at a series of data server units; delivering to a client a playlist indicating the playback order, wherein the playlist is configured to be natively processed by the client, whereby the native processing directs the client to: initiate requests for the individual segments to corresponding data server units according to the playback order; download the respective individual segments from the corresponding data server units according to the playback order; and render the respective individual segments according to the playback order so as to render a reconstitution of the dynamic media content; sending each respective individual segment from its respective data server unit to the client device according to a playback order of the playlist. The system includes dynamically scalable architecture for delivery of real-time video packet data sent over a communication network.
