Over-the-top and through-the-middle content delivery is both a huge opportunity for new revenue streams and also an opportunity for the entrance of new competitors. Home automation, mobile backhaul and content delivery management are fast becoming lucrative revenue opportunities. The leveraging of big data and analytics services is another major potential long-term opportunity. This forward-looking research will help Cableco’s and ISP’s to understand:
