Executive Summary
• The evolution in digital technology has led television broadcast facilities through a phase of
transition. Upgrades from analog to digital transmission and to high-definition (HD) content
have resulted in more opportunities for advertisers, broadcasters, service providers, and
equipment manufacturers.
• As a result, consumers not only have access to more high-quality audio and video content
through diverse media such as cable, satellite, Internet protocol television (IPTV), and
mobile and Web-based networks, but they can receive and interact with advertisements
that are highly tailored to suit their interests and are engaging.
• 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 and catch up TV
functions, 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 ad insertion technology in their facilities over the
forecast period to augment their revenue streams.

Executive Summary (continued)
• There has been an increasing uptake of digital video services through multiple channels
and platforms worldwide. Broadcasters and cable operators have been migrating to all-
digital networks, thus catering to their subscribers’ growing needs for digital content. The
transition from standard-definition (SD) to HD and proliferation of VOD content and
libraries have increased the focus on developing appropriate advertising models and
technology that offers operators the ability to provide interactive and addressable
commercials.
• Further, major sports events such as the Sochi Olympics in Russia and the FIFA World
Cup in Brazil in 2014, as well as all studio productions globally, are increasingly recorded
in HD and Ultra-HD. These events have helped shorten the sales cycles for purchasing
digital media technology but at the same time are expected to increase the demand for
digital equipment, including video server systems, for effective and efficient distribution of
content to the consumer.
• The global server market has experienced 3 straight years of growth despite the
macroeconomic challenges in the Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA) region and is
expected to record revenue of nearly $2.0 billion by 2019.

Executive Summary—CEO’s Perspective
2
Cable and telco companies that do not upgrade their server solutions to distribute video over multiple media such as Internet and mobile/tablets risk falling behind the competitive curve.
3
The video server market has witnessed significant consolidation among vendors over the last 5 years; the cable segment is most fragmented, and telco and broadcast should expect further M&A activity.
4 Interactive services such as NPVR, time-shifted TV, and VOD continue to be key differentiators for cable MSOs and telco operators. Dynamic ad insertion driven by analytics is the game changer.
5
As North America and Western Europe have been leading the way in terms of infrastructure upgrades and workflow digitization, demand from these regions is expected to be relatively weak over the forecast period.
1
Service providers must necessarily focus on deriving a greater share of revenue from their advertisement business to monetize investments in interactive services.

Drivers and Restraints
Total Video and Ad Insertion Server Market: Key Market Drivers and Restraints, Global, 2014–2019
Intense competition in the industry continues to drive down prices and
margins for video and ad server vendors. H H-M M
The uneven pace of the migration from analog to digital broadcasting
globally and lack of HD content curtails server uptake. H H-M M
The lack of proven business models creates uncertainty for ad agencies and
content providers with targeted advertising. H H H-M
The delivery of video content via OTT is a restraint to IPTV server and
equipment investments. H H H-M

The Last Word—Three Big Predictions
2
As the transition of audiences and content to the digital online platform intensifies, ad spending online has already exceeded some traditional media in Western markets in 2012. Given the current growth rates, it is expected to reach a tipping point in the next 3 to 4 years and could negatively impact spending in the TV, cable, and IPTV market segments.
3
Cable and IPTV MSOs will get more aggressive in terms of content acquisition and vertical integration. In 2013, Comcast purchased an 8% stake in Arris for $150 million following the acquisition of Motorola Home solutions by Arris earlier in the year. The line between technology solution providers and their clients (the MSOs) will get even more blurred going forward.
1
Following on the heels of Arris’ purchase of Motorola’s video server business in 2013 and Harmonic’s acquisition of Omneon a couple of years ago, there is expected to be a wave of further consolidation activity as the major participants look to shore up their market leadership positions by buying or merging with companies operating on a lower scale in the next 3 to 4 years.
