Standards-based Streaming Analytics and its Visualization

As over-the-top (OTT) media streaming and underlying technologies have matured, streaming analytics has become more important, especially in a heterogeneous device ecosystem, where new devices or software updates can potentially cause streaming issues. In this paper we consider Server and Network Assisted DASH (SAND), Common Media Client Data (CMCD) and CTA-2066 Streaming Quality of Experience Events, Properties and Metrics as standards to enable interoperable, standard-based streaming analytics for the predominant streaming formats MPEG-DASH and HLS. We focus on the visualization aspect of streaming metrics in user interface (UI) dashboards.
