We develop techniques to identify connections related to video streams from their NETFLOW records. We then investigate how the fraction of UOnet traffic associated with (i.e. popularity of) major video streaming applications (e.g. YoutTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime), the basic characteristics of their video (e.g. bandwidth and duration) and their delivery mechanism have evolved over the past few years. Our empirical findings will offer valuable insights into important practical aspects of video streams services and their evolution over time.video/mp4application/pdfen-USCreative Commons CC0data analysisvideo streamingcomputer scienceinternetnetworkingPresentationhttps://orcid.org/0000-0001-9980-4786
