over-the-top platform, refers to a software solution that enables the delivery of video and media content directly over the internet, without relying on traditional cable or satellite television infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These platforms allow content owners, broadcasters, and media businesses to distribute live and on-demand video across connected devices such as smartphones, web browsers, smart TVs, and video streaming devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to content delivery, OTT platforms commonly include tools for managing, securing, and monetizing video assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typical capabilities of an OTT platform may include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Video hosting and content management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Live streaming and video-on-demand delivery<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adaptive bitrate streaming for different network conditions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Content protection and access control mechanisms<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Monetization support through subscriptions, advertising, or transactions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Analytics for measuring viewer engagement and performance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Because OTT platforms serve a wide variety of streaming models, their features and flexibility can vary depending on the provider and intended use case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ott-platform\"><span
