Over The Top (OTT) services primarily use the Internet as a medium for communication. Now, when the devices like smart phones, PDAs, smart TV, set top box, and gaming consoles have the Internet connectivity, OTT services can be used across these devices. In the Over The Top market, certain industry verticals are also expected to provide immense opportunities. Referring particularly the the mobile segment, currently the subscriber uses a phone call, SMS, or video call services in order to communicate with each other through a cellular network. But with the implementation of Over The Top (OTT) services, these users can connect among each other with the help of data connection which they have subscribed on their smartphones. The advantage of using OTT services is that it is much cheaper compared to legacy carrier services. The disadvantage can be the quality of service that is degraded in the countries where there is low Internet penetration.
