Real Time Broadcast TV and OTT Network Monitoring for Increased Quality and Reduced Costs

Broadcast TV and OTT networks contain a mix of equipment, services, and software that can be costly and hard to maintain. During my interview with Laura Delcor, VP of Marketing for Nice People at Work, she explained that Broadcast and OTT providers have complex networks with multiple monitoring points and dynamically changing systems. Laura discussed that it is important for TV service providers to be able to rapidly detect problems or early warning signs of problems (such as increasing congestion) and be able to gather, analyze, and distribute useful troubleshooting information. She explained that video network analytics can also be used to optimize network configurations and services to increase quality while reducing costs.
