BUSINESS PROBLEMS FOR CONTENT OWNERS?
Content owners are acquiring and producing material in 4K, 8K, and 360 video for virtual reality and augmented reality. Cameras
are more affordable and accessible and they are being used more frequently in daily productions.
Prettier pictures === more servers, more storage, more time to process, more things to automate, more delivery partners.
In 2016 AOL Verizon produced 4 to 6 hours of content in 1080p for their flagship BUILD. This show alone, produced about 15 TB mo / 180 TB year of new data per month. When they start delivering in 4K this number will increase to 75 TB mo / 900 TB year
Expense of expanding traditional data networks speeds, deploying new server hardware and software makes this problem a CIO’s new daily nightmare because now he needs to better manage a more expensive budget, when CFOs look to cut costs yearly in technology
