Abstract

This paper presents an integrated tool for performance and content analysis, management, SLA evaluation and smart presentation for video-on-demand services. The improvement in the users’ access lines has originated the appearance of several video-on-demand services. Due to the elevated resources consumption of this kind of services, it is extremely important to obtain a high-quality configuration, which is compulsorily based on the realization of reliable behavioural analyses. In recent years, some specific tools for video-on-demand analysis have appeared. They obtain their data from servers and proxies log files. However, to achieve accurate analyses, further information is necessary, for instance, video metadata or resources consumption statistics. Fesoria is a tool which combines the analysis of log information gathered from the streaming servers and proxies, with other data provided by both the content and the ISP managers. All this information is analyzed in order to generate reports about the service performance and evolution, and the users’ preferences. In addition, the results of these analyses are also employed to establish an intelligent presentation of contents for the users of the service.
