1. A method for controlling dispersed storage of streaming data, the method comprises: determining properties of the streaming data; determining required dispersed storage resources based on the properties of the streaming data; when the required dispersed storage resources requires a plurality of sets of dispersed storage resources: identifying the plurality of sets of dispersed storage resources; establishing first error coding dispersed storage function parameters for a first set of dispersed storage resources of the plurality of sets of dispersed storage resources; enabling partitioning of the streaming data into a plurality of data streams; and enabling routing of a first data stream of the plurality of data streams to the first set of dispersed storage resources, wherein the first set of dispersed storage resources converts the first data stream into pluralities of error coded data slices in accordance with the first error coding dispersed storage function parameters.
