Within a Min & Max time range
for a particular video, we should
be able to set the length of a
video to watch and capture all
the important points in the
entire video

and the use of Cloud Computing
to provide access to the videos.

Education – Recorded training
and online tutorials would be
more personalized

20. Elastic Videos - Application Areas
Sports – You can watch one
single recorded football match
several times by setting
emphasis on a particular team,
