OVER THE TOP SERVICES
Summary:
Today the debate over Over-the-Top services (OTT) rages across media, service provider planning teams, and now the TeleManagement Forum. Partly this debate is about business models, partly about legality and regulation, partly about what technology to allow and to leverage, and lastly it is about consumer and business desire for services. But what does this mean for the management of networks, for OSS & BSS? What is changing? What is no longer realistic and what new opportunities are opening up? How can intelligent planning, good policies, proper technology and well crafted processes turn the tide of operator fear to profit?
