A study by Arthur D. Little and the cable network operator Liberty Global on “The future of the Internet” shows that the Internet has changed from a pure communication platform to a video streaming platform. In the US, the Internet streaming service Netflix reaches one third of the entire traffic at peak times. Other Internet-based applications causing traffic such as Smart Metering, Digital Health, Secure Home Delivery and applications for industrial companies will increase traffic even further. Moreover, a tremendous growth in the machine-to-machine communication is also expected. This will be challenging for the infrastructure as well as for network operators and will require new business models for companies.
