挑战
United, a Netherlands-based company that is part of the Euro Media Group (EMG), provides personnel and equipment for a variety of television programming. The company manages more than 45 percent of all Dutch television productions aired and works with international broadcasters. United provides an end-to-end service for providers, including cameras, crews, and satellite uplinks. However, the company's existing network was struggling with video files hundreds of gigabytes in size, and the generation of about 16 terabytes of information daily, which then had to be prepared for various platforms. The existing network was not secure enough and was not up to date with the company's current needs. United was also consolidating operations by moving from four buildings into one new facility, which helped push the company toward a network infrastructure refresh.

During the 2011/2012 cricket season, 700,000 consumers downloaded the Cricket Live Australia application. Vodafone needed to be able to meet customer demand, but didn’t want to invest in additional resources that would be underutilized during cricket’s off-season.
