New Revenue Opportunity for Data Centers due to Pandemic

蚂蚁媒体’s Ahmet Oguz Mermerkaya talks growth in the Video Streaming Market.

It’s clear that live or on demand video streaming plays a crucial role in our modern society as people watch streaming videos on social media or the internet and share the content with their friends as part of their everyday lives. 除了, the pandemic which started in late 2019 has affected almost everything in daily life, including changing the way we work, 商店, 旅行等等. It’s been clear for decades that the development of online video services has been on the rise, and today’s global health situation has accelerated this growth in the video streaming market even more.

Therefore, 2020 is the year when the largest number of interactive videos ever have been streamed. So, the question here is how infrastructure providers such as Data Centers and Cloud Networks can cope with these changes, and convert the trend into competitive advantage in order to grow their share in the market.

The Need for Data Centers

All video streaming platforms require computing and network resources for video transcoding, 视频交付, handling user requests and so on – and eventually all need data centers to deliver the best experience to both players and viewers. Due to dynamic requests by viewers and the widely spread locations of broadcasters and viewers, it’s essential that data centers offer scalability to match growing numbers of players, and offer a quality streaming experience to millions of players wherever they are in the world. 

So what does the future hold for Data Centers? Will they consider introducing new products into their portfolio to enrich their offerings? Will they need to own video streaming platforms to become a substantial player and gain new market share -- or should they stay as simple infrastructure providers?

The Revenue Opportunity for Data Centers

The answer to the questions about owning a video streaming platform is simply ‘yes’, as Data Centers expand their offering beyond infrastructure operations, and move into selling valued added services with hosted applications. The most significant advantage of Data Centers compared to current Video Streaming Platforms (PaaS/SaaS) on the market is that they already have available infrastructure and bandwidth to minimize upfront costs and reduce overheads. 

To win in this environment, both Data Centers and Cloud Networks have to gear up for a technology shift. Building a platform via partnering with video streaming platform technology providers such as 蚂蚁媒体 is a great way to start.
