Value-Based Network Capacity Planning Case Study

This case study outlines the approach taken by a global telecommunications company to enhance its network investment planning through a data-driven methodology. Faced with the challenge of expanding its content delivery network for high-speed video services, the company needed to strategically invest in network infrastructure to meet growing demand while minimizing capital expenditures. The company utilized Datameer to aggregate and analyze large datasets, including session logs and IP lease records, to identify customer usage patterns and forecast future network demands. The analysis involved modeling customer session data to determine peak usage times and locations. As a result, the company improved its ability to plan network expansions effectively, ensuring that new infrastructure was built in proximity to high-demand areas. This strategic planning not only helped in maximizing return on assets but also enabled the company to provide faster digital download speeds, thereby maintaining competitiveness in the market.
