DUBLIN -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/2249a5/world_video_server) has announced the addition of Frost & Sullivan's new report "World Video Server Market" to their offering.

This study covers the state of the World Video Server Market, examining drivers and restraints for growth, pricing, distribution, technology, demand and geographical trends. The market is further divided into three segments - cable, telco and broadcast. Following from these, market growth for regional and market segments are forecasted. In addition, an in-depth analysis of the competitive situation including vendors' market shares in each segment is performed, along with detailed profiles of the key vendors in the industry. The base year is 2010 with forecasts running through 2017.

The evolution in digital technology has led television broadcast facilities through a phase of transition. Analog to digital transmission and the transition to high-definition (HD) content have led to more opportunities for broadcasters, service providers, and equipment manufacturers. As a result, consumers now have access to more high quality audio and video content through diverse media such as cable, satellite, Internet protocol television (IPTV), mobile and Web-based networks.

Amongst the array of services available to the consumers today, personalized and interactive services such as video-on-demand (VOD) have transformed the way consumers watch television. The success of on-demand television has further led to the birth of more enhanced capabilities such as pause live TV, catch up TV, networked personal video recorders (NPVRs), and interactive advertising. This proliferation in content services is expected to drive broadcasters and service providers to install state-of-the-art technology products in their facilities, including video servers to ensure streaming of high-quality content into the homes of viewers. Video servers are critical broadcast equipment that facilitate and manage ingests, and processing and storage of videos, thus contributing to a wholesome viewing package for the end viewer.

Frost & Sullivan defines video server as a system comprising multiple inputs, outputs and internal or external storage, which is used as a content management and playout system that stores, processes, encodes, decodes and delivers video files over broadcast, cable and telco networks. For the purpose of this analysis, the market has been segmented into three segments:

* Cable video server market

* Telco video server market

* Broadcast video server market

The broadcast video server market can be further segmented into playout, sports, newsroom and studio markets.

This research does not include streaming servers used for applications such as Web or mobile video distribution.

This research aims to analyze the video server market, the demands of various application segments, drivers to growth, market restraints and challenges, technology and market trends, pricing, and revenue forecasts by application segments as well as geographic regions. Prices and revenues are presented in U.S. dollars.
