Concurrent Boosts the Performance of Over-The-Top Video Services

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Concurrent (NASDAQ:CCUR), a global leader in multi-screen video delivery and media data intelligence solutions, today unveiled a new software-based video solution that enables fixed-line and mobile broadband operators to boost the performance of over-the-top (OTT) video services, while also creating new revenue opportunities and reducing operational costs. With growing consumer demand for online video, communications service providers (CSPs) are facing increased traffic across their core, metro, and access networks. Video traffic associated with services like Netflix®, Apple TV®, YouTube®, and Amazon Prime Instant Video has resulted in increased network congestion, rising Internet peering costs, and added transit expenses for service providers. In response, CSPs are demanding solutions that both reduce costs by more efficiently managing third party traffic on their networks and generate revenue by enabling them to participate in the value chain associated with OTT video streaming services.
