Network Norway was established in 2005, reaching now 450,000 subscribers. “Increasing video traffic is driving up network costs drastically,” said Tor Anders Braun, Head of VAS & Core Networks at Network Norway. “Flash Networks’ Web Optimization has already succeeded in boosting data speeds in our network, so it was only natural to add video optimization to further increase our data traffic efficiency, enabling us to lower costs while increasing subscriber satisfaction.”
