New WTA Research Report: Teleports and Big Data


New York, NY, October 30, 2019--The World Teleport Association (WTA) released a new report entitled: "Teleports and Big Data." The report quotes NSR, which estimates that the biggest markets for big data via satellite will be in transportation, government/military and oil & gas – sectors where teleport operators are deeply embedded. Devices and connectivity are key parts of the mix, but so are applications: formatted data streams and data analytics are the end-products that customers actually need. Success in big data requires teleport operators to evolve beyond connectivity to management of complex networks, sophisticated information processing and a deep understanding of customer requirements.

For Teleports and Big Data, WTA asked teleport, satellite and technology executives to describe the big data revolution’s impact on their businesses today and the sales, marketing and investment decisions they are making to target expanded opportunity in the future. WTA asked executives to explore the niches offering the greatest opportunity in the near-term as well as visions of the future role of transmission and satellite technology providers in a data economy.
