Video as a service
<The video-as-a-service product uses a cloud platform in order to create an "out of the box" video offering via virtualization and a multi-tenant approach.> that sounds pretty exciting. Does that mean viewers would be able to set up their own choices. Are we now at the stage of truly personalized bundles?

No, it doesn't mean a la carte video (sadly) ; it means that small and medium-sized service providers can turn up video services and applications faster.

Re: Video as a service
Although the two are not unconnected; one of the ways small and medium providers will compete is by partial debundling, and giving them the technical tools to deliver faster means there will be more partial debunding. And as I'm too fond of saying, one way that the market will find its way to a la carte is that there's no rebundling after you debundle; it's  a ratchet, with every step toward a la carte irreversible and almost no steps away from it sustainable.

@Mike, Huawei continues to "drive" the offerings with their innovative designs.  This configurability to support the debundling and scability seems like a truly smart move to solve customers problems.  I would expect they will continue to lead the markets with their wider range of offerings.

Is anyone else in their "league" with comparable offerings at this stage?

This is great for smaller companies, hopefully they can grab a significant portion of the market share. Huawei seems to truly be a visionary in product service and offering. Some companies in the U.S. can take a lesson from them.
