Case Study
A Leading Digital Entertainment Provider Implements a Modern OTT Platform to Maintain their Competitive Edge
The new global content delivery solution achieves 100% delivery accuracy on time and within budget.
Overview
The client is a leading digital entertainment provider operating in North and Latin America, serving a large base of both residential and commercial customers.
Challenge
The client’s legacy platform lacked modern features that would enable true Over-the-Top (OTT) capabilities, Video-on-Demand (VOD) services, and local content insertion. As part of this modernization effort, the client needed to enable programmable content apps for seamless integration with other OTT content providers.
Solution
The client wanted Ness to build, deploy, scale, and support their new global content delivery solution for linear and OTT platforms to maintain their competitive edge. The platform was built on a scalable infrastructure, leveraging AWS services, including EKS, ALB, RDS, Redis, WAF, Elasticsearch, S3, EC2, Lambda, AWS Inspector, AWS SSM, CloudWatch, and ECR. It enabled end-to-end ownership of the cloud environments (from development through production, deployment, support, and ongoing optimization) and utilized a well-architected AWS framework for operations.
Result
Ness’s solution reached the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) status rapidly, meeting the client’s ambitious target to officially launch the platform during a key industry event in North America. They executed the initial POC in under three months and the first MVP release to production in 10 months. It is currently deployed in more than 300 properties, running on more than 27,000 devices, showing continued growth. The client achieved 100% delivery accuracy on time and within budget.
