New Teleport Research: How Innovation Enables Teleport Success in a Changing Video Distribution Market

The fast and global rise of video streaming has permanently changed the traditional broadcast model, not only in the adoption of enabling and cloud-connected technologies but also in the way organizations collaborate throughout the entire supply chain.

In the past, the teleport operators served the end customers and the content providers. Today, there are many, many different players involved. Consumers may be getting content from OTT service providers that bundle content. Those providers may be relying on the cloud connection for parts of the network. There may be some 5G connections for some of the delivery. The whole relationship chain is much more complex. This evolution is going very fast, and the need for end-to-end monitoring and orchestration is very high.
