Los operadores de telecomunicaciones de todo el mundo están explorando nuevas formas de crecer más allá de los servicios residenciales tradicionales de banda ancha y televisión. Si bien los mercados de consumo están alcanzando la madurez en muchas regiones,
The result: a platform designed not only for today’s viewers, but for CityNet’s future growth.
TV modernization does not necessarily mean replacing everything that already works.
CityNet wanted to move beyond a traditional live-TV-oriented service and introduce a significantly richer IPTV/OTT experience for the Azerbaijan market — while continuing to support existing customers, multicast delivery, legacy devices, business systems, and established operational processes.
Working with UniqCast, CityNet created a hybrid platform capable of serving traditional IPTV subscribers and OTT users across multiple networks and devices from a unified environment.

The platform combines traditional IPTV and modern OTT delivery while supporting users across Android AOSP and Android TV Operator Tier STBs, Smart TVs, mobile, web, Apple TV, and other supported devices.

Bring existing Linux STBs into the new platform instead of maintaining a separate legacy environment.
Modern Content Discovery
Turn Catch-Up TV into a content-led experience with dynamic catalogs, content rails, “Discover and Watch,” and a vertical TV Guide.
OTT Aggregation
Bring services including Netflix, Megogo, Digiturk, KinoBox, and streaming apps into a broader entertainment environment.
TV Store & Monetization
Enable package upselling, direct operator billing, credit-card payments, and additional revenue opportunities directly from the TV experience.
Three-Site Geo-Redundancy
Create a resilient platform architecture distributed across three sites for increased availability and business continuity.
Multitenancy
Provide a centralized foundation for integrating acquired cable and ISP businesses without creating new technical islands.

The first phase included the turnkey IPTV/OTT platform, geo-redundancy across three sites, middleware, transcoding, multi-DRM, Fast Channel Change, and the core infrastructure required for multiscreen delivery.
The following phases focused on migration — including integration of older Linux STBs into the same centralized environment used for the new generation of services.
Las modernas plataformas IPTV/OTT multiusuario hacen posible esta transición al permitir a los operadores lanzar nuevos servicios de streaming rápidamente y, al mismo tiempo, mantener un control total sobre la marca, el contenido y la prestación de servicios.

Make live, Catch-Up, recorded, and OTT content easier to discover.
Generate additional revenue
Support TV Store purchases, add-on packages, operator billing, card payments, and future targeted advertising.
Simplify expansion
Use multitenancy to integrate acquired cable and ISP businesses into a centralized environment.
Reduce hardware dependency
Expand Smart TV delivery and create greater flexibility as STB hardware costs increase.
The case study describes the platform as enabling CityNet to combine reach, UX, monetization, operations, and device strategy within a single foundation for future development.
