Jet-Stream Gold Sponsor Content Delivery Summit

Jet-Stream is Gold Sponsor for Content Delivery Summit, May 14 2012, New York

Scott Landman, Jet-Stream Vice President Americas will address the economics of deploying Content Delivery Networks for telecom operators and content publishers. 

Jet-Stream deployed over 30 CDNs for telecom operators and broadcasters across the globe. These CDNs aren't just operationally successful, but commercially as well, with up to 45% profit margins. With this unique experience, we know where to cut costs and we know which models do and don't work.

What are the major cost factors? Which factor is the most expensive: network, delivery servers, CDN management, workflow integration, deployment, support or operation? How can CDNs be optimized to optimize and offload the network? How can CDNs eliminate overhead equipment costs? What are the economic pitfalls of Internet CDNs and vendor CDNs? Why are Internet CDNs unable to lower their capex and opex? How expensive is building a CDN from scratch compared to buying off the shelves technology? How can operational and support costs be minimized? Which one is really cheaper from a TCO perspective: COTS or appliances?

Which factors are key for commercial succes? Why is it a bad idea to build a business case on traffic alone? Why have Internet CDNs been unable to turn their business into sustainable profitability? How to prevent becoming a commodity? Do you need both a retail and a wholesale strategy? Does CDN federation really bring new revenues? Is it enough to be reactive or do you need to proactively build a product strategy? How do best effort CDN technologies and locked in CDN technologies limit a serious business case?
