Case Study: Fixing Video Disruptions Before they Happen A large broadband internet, video, and telecommunications company has a long history of providing telephone, wireless, and video services to millions of homes and businesses throughout the United States. The company delivers broadcast and video-ondemand content over its fiber-to-the-premises service through a set-top box (STB). The company’s STBs are complex and cumbersome to update, making new features difficult and expensive to deliver. “New features require us to update every customer’s set-top box,” a company vice president told us. “Some updates are successful. Others fail and require a house call.” As a result, the company is testing the use of a virtual STB that requires updates to the network, not the STB, to release new features.
