According to market data (Parks Associates 2015), global OTT video subscription revenues are forecasted to increase from $9 billion in 2014 to $19 billion in 2019. The increasing demand for OTT content is expected to create an incredible market opportunity. This is especially true for live OTT offerings, such as global sports programs and other live events. However, today’s OTT delivery platforms and CDNs’ best effort solutions are not optimized for live. Today there is a delay of up to a few minutes in a traditional OTT platform. The disconnect between the primary and secondary screens negatively impacts the audience experience and makes social media interaction, customer engagement and other time-sensitive applications impossible. A true live OTT solution will change this scenario and Net Insight will now take a leading role in this exciting development.
