Web based social networks and the rapid rise of mobile apps has dramatically altered the communications industry. Concurrent with this disruption, service providers are also challenged with moving their service infrastructures to more modern, flexible, and cost effective architectures. OTT communications is a term used to describe the delivery of real-time communication services, applications, and features “over-the-top” of the Internet. Service providers can leverage their core strengths while using OTT communications to increase their competitiveness, generate new revenues, and increase their importance to customers while evolving to future-ready agile, web-like service delivery architectures.
