New Webinar: "How OTTs Save Money and Improve Performance by Streaming Video on the Alternative Cloud"

The last couple of years I've been spending more time researching and understanding OTT infrastructure-- capabilities, as well as technical and cost trade-offs.

Next week, I'll be moderating a webinar on the topic of "show-verload". What is show-verload you might ask?
