Abstract

A method for monitoring streaming video content is provided. Content Delivery Network (CDN) feed sent over one or more CDNs is monitored and analyzed using a first soft probe deployed in the one or more CDNs to generate a first video session record. Video traffic sent over a packet core network (PCN) is monitored and analyzed using a second soft probe deployed in the PCN to generate a second video session record. A third session record is generated by correlating the first session record to the second session record. The third session record corresponds to an end-to-end video streaming session. One or more performance characteristics corresponding to the end-to-end video streaming session are generated based at least in part on the third session record.
