IP VIDEO – THE NEXT FRONTIER IN LIVE VIDEO PRODUCTION The Ability to Produce over IP-Networks Stands to Improve Broadcasters’ Workflows, But Expect Adoption to be Phased In •



• •



The transition from SDI to IP-based systems presents live video broadcasters with a variety of benefits specifically in the realm of production scalability and flexibility – outsourcing production to any software or hardware-based system connected to the IP network will effectively remove peak facility load limitations Industry experts largely expect the transition from SDI systems will be complete in the next five to ten years1 – market research has found that approximately 80% of broadcasters are two to over ten years away from fully converting to IP-based operations2 Various concerns continue to drive the anticipated slow transition to IP-based workflows – top drivers include cost, operational disruptions and security2 A current lack of standards for producing over an IP network present additional challenges for broadcasters, especially in regards to interoperability – to help solve this lack of sufficient standards, various protocols have been created by technology vendors to promote an easy adoption of IP-based workflows Significant opportunity exists for technology providers offering IP enabled solutions to capitalize on momentum building for IP-based workflows 1.

VIRTUALIZATION – EVOLUTION OF SAAS IN VIDEO PRODUCTION









Adoption of virtualized workflows presents many benefits and minimal challenges – benefits include greater scalability for quick deployment of new content, lower upfront costs and offsite backup of content Certain video production tasks are better positioned to take advantage of SaaS functionality than others; however, it is expected that in the future the majority of production capabilities will be SaaS ready – market research indicates that 52% of broadcasters believe encoding and transcoding is the first operation they would move to a cloud environment1 Through the use of virtualized offerings, broadcasters are able to move video production tools offsite and merge with existing IT infrastructure – hosting production applications on the cloud will help with this transition SaaS-based production tools can be deployed in both public and private clouds – it is expected that hybrid cloud models will be deployed in video production environments; the most data intensive computing and storage applications will be completed using a private cloud while everything else will occur in a public cloud Improvements in security and data processing capabilities are expected to drive increased adoption of public cloud technology – forecasts expect that 56% of cloud workflows will occur on a public cloud by 20192; the broadcast video industry is expected to follow this trend

OTT – CONTINUED FOCUS, ONGOING OPPORTUNITY Increasing Presence of Live and Linear OTT Continuing to Create an Opportunity for Professional Video Technology Providers



• •



OTT video consumption continues to grow and generate more revenue – global OTT subscriptions expected to reach 383 million and generate nearly $65 billion in revenue by 2021, representing a five year CAGR of 14.0%1 Driving the expected growth of OTT is an increasing demand from consumers for OTT content – market studies have found that 76% of consumers are more or equally likely to watch OTT/SVOD content than cable TV2; concurrently, major pay TV providers have shed over one million subscribers in the last year 3 Expansion of OTT is not expected to fully cannibalize traditional TV but rather be complementary; creating a substantial opportunity for technology providers OTT is expected to help expedite the adoption of virtualized production technologies, as certain aspects of OTT delivery can be completed easier through cloudbased tools – for example, transcoding to the growing amount of OTT ready screens is achieved more efficiently through the use of virtualized, cloud-based tools The SaaS-based nature of virtualized offerings fall more in line with the business models of OTT providers who do not broadcast on a 24/7 basis 1.
