Servers stress / workload with WebGL medias requested by VideoPlayer

Hello, I recently developed a VideoPlayer WebGL application (geoarcmap.alwaysdata.net/VINTAGE_TV) which plays videos hosted on servers. I intend to host large videos on a server for this application. But it is my understanding that if multiple users watch the same video at around the same time, it might induce some stress/workload on this server, resulting in a poor user experience. My question is: Is there a way for an individual like me with limited resources and knowledge to mitigate this server stress ?
