Telecom Company Analyzes 15-month Viewership Data with Kyvos

About The Customer

America’s largest broadband and cable operator powering millions of connections

For nearly three decades, this US-based connectivity provider has been delivering broadband, video, mobile and voice services to over 31 million customers across 41 states. Operating under a fiber network spanning nearly 800,000 route miles and supported by a workforce of around 95,000 employees, the company continues to expand its network and invest in advanced technologies to provide fast, reliable and secure connectivity nationwide.

Challenges

Slow analytics and limited data scope restricted audience insights

The organization struggled to analyze massive, fast-growing viewership data, as existing systems couldn’t keep up with billions of records generated each month.

Complex, high-volume data delayed ad-hoc analysis: With 10 billion records generated monthly from 30 million+ users, runtime joins across large tables made queries slow and inconsistent.

Incomplete data visibility: Although 15 months of data was available, analyzing across multiple months was difficult due to the size and complexity of datasets.

Inability to slice and dice across multiple dimensions: Users couldn’t analyze data across key dimensions such as demographics, network information and program details, limiting their ability to uncover deeper audience insights.

Business Goals

Unlock faster, multi-dimensional viewership insights

The company aimed to modernize its analytics stack to better understand audience behavior and support data-driven decisions. Their objectives were to:

Scale analytics for massive datasets.

Reduce query and reporting times for faster business actions.

Enable self-service exploration to allow business users to independently analyze viewership data across multiple dimensions.

Leverage historical data effectively to identify trends, patterns and opportunities for growth.

Strengthen business decision-making by helping teams evaluate broadcaster performance, negotiate better with networks and optimize programming strategies based on audience insights.
