Google used the annual Game Developers Conference (GDC 2019) to officially unveil “Stadia” as their cloud-based game streaming service formerly known as Project Stream.
To little surprise these days, the Google Stadia streaming service is built on Linux servers. Also to not a lot of surprise, Vulkan is their graphics API of choice for streaming right now up to 4K at 60FPS while they plan to expand to 8K at 120FPS in the future.
