This paper provides an overview of the challenges faced by service providers that wish to efficiently streamline the rollout of "triple-play" services while lowering the total cost of ownership for video content management. The requirements for an efficient Video Back Office solution are presented, along with a solution overview and an explanation of the solution's benefits. A technical implementation is also provided as an example of a deployment architecture that can contribute to the rapid deployment of video services, allow service providers to differentiate their offerings, and protect their investments over a long life for the service delivery platform and architectures.
