Platform optimisation
A major European broadcasting organisation experienced escalating video delivery costs and inconsistent playback performance across their OTT platform. Through comprehensive platform audit and codec optimisation, I delivered a 40% reduction in bandwidth requirements whilst improving visual quality metrics. The implementation included H.265 codec migration, adaptive bitrate ladder redesign, and CDN configuration optimisation.
The optimisation process involved detailed analysis of encoding profiles, identification of redundant quality tiers, and implementation of advanced compression techniques. Results included reduced infrastructure costs, improved user experience metrics, and enhanced platform scalability for future growth requirements.
Cost reduction
A telecommunications provider required significant operational cost reduction across their video streaming infrastructure whilst maintaining service quality standards. Strategic CDN optimisation and intelligent caching implementation, achieved cost reductions exceeding €200K annually.
The approach included multi-provider CDN strategy, traffic routing optimisation, and automated scaling mechanisms.
Implementation involved comprehensive traffic analysis, identification of inefficient delivery patterns, and deployment of intelligent routing algorithms. The organisation achieved substantial cost savings whilst improving content delivery performance and reducing latency across their service regions.
Performance improvement
An international streaming platform faced user experience challenges including extended video startup times and frequent playback interruptions. Systematic performance analysis and infrastructure optimisation, resulted in a 60% improvement in video startup times and 75% reduction in playback failures. The approach included origin server optimisation, content pre-positioning, and adaptive streaming improvements.
The transformation involved detailed user experience analysis, identification of performance bottlenecks, and implementation of proactive content delivery strategies. Results included improved customer satisfaction metrics, reduced support requirements, and enhanced platform competitiveness in the streaming market..
Architecture transformation
A media company required complete streaming infrastructure modernisation to support expanding content libraries and growing international audience demands. Comprehensive architecture redesign, resulted in a scalable cloud-based platform capable of supporting 10x traffic growth whilst reducing operational complexity. The implementation included microservices architecture, containerised deployment, and automated monitoring systems.
The transformation process involved legacy system analysis, modern architecture design, and phased migration planning that minimised service disruption. The organisation achieved improved operational efficiency, enhanced scalability, and reduced technical debt whilst maintaining consistent service availability.
