The 15-second delay built into broadcast video delivery permits you to make quick changes or redirect if something goes wrong or a speaker accidentally launches a swear word inappropriate for your audience, for example. So examples of web RTC include video calls and Zoom meetings. For workshops, there is no direct upload.
