Netflix is one of the most leading markets of streaming services whereas as per the report from Statista, Netflix has more than 151 million paid subscribers, so this American media service provider was discovered in 1997 as an online movie rental service. Nevertheless, the company was competing to establish video rental stores. So, unlike any other conventional renting system, Netflix allows their users to keep the DVDs for long as they wanted, without a late fee, where the renters also received the DVDs through mail service. Therefore, Netflix has introduced several technologies on its online platform like recommendation system, which is based on the ratings, so the service becomes so popular, which has reached near one million subscribers in the US by 2003. It was 2007 when Netflix enabled online viewers to watch the television series and movies online using this platform, and by 2013, Netflix has started producing its original content, where some of which have become globally popular and some famous names include Arrested development, house of cards and orange is the new black. However, in the subsequent sections, we have given focus on different technologies as well as features which are revolving around the Netflix app.

Below are the given technologies that are used for the Netflix streaming service:

Python
There are numerous software systems which are designed to operate content delivery network which is mainly written in Python, where the open connect CDN improves the streaming experience for the viewer to keep the cost of Netflix in check. So, the team uses Python for automating tasks, and for exploring clean data, to utilize as a source for visualization work. Nevertheless, tasks like auto-remediation, vulnerability identification, security automation, and risk classification the information security team mainly depends upon the Python. So, to train a few machine learning models for personalizing viewer experience, Netflix uses Python app development, with the personalization of machine learning infrastructure.
 
Hybrid application
Netflix is a hybrid application, which gives an edge over native apps, where the hybrid app comes with features like an easy code portability, low maintenance cost, and fast development speed. As the technology is related to the hybrid apps keeps for evolving the streaming service can update its functionalities seamlessly. Nevertheless, the given framework includes Gmail, Instagram, and Twitter.   
 
Apps for Production
There are numerous technologies on which Netflix mainly relies on to make the production of content more streamlined, and recently, they have done mobile application development, which is known as Prodicle. So, this application is mainly developed for using reactive architecture to help for production to organize the shooting day throughout different stages of shooting.
 
Below are the given uses of AI which are used for better user experience:
 
Auto-generation thumbnail
Auto generation thumbnail is mainly achieved by using online learning framework, which are also known as contextual bandits. However, this framework helps for choosing the most suitable thumbnail for each member depending on the context, where the attributes considered for this purpose by including the titles which every member has to play, the genres, country, language preference, the devices which are being used and day as well as time.
  
Recommendation
Netflix mainly depends upon the collection of a data where service collects a set of data which are related to how the member utilize the service, so it is followed by the running machine learning algorithm on this set of data. Nevertheless, the new algorithm is then tested against the existing production system, where the A/B testing helps the team for identifying whether the new algorithm is better. So, Group A member receives the existing production experience, where the Group B members receive the new algorithm, and the comparison of engagement helps for finalizing whether the new algorithm is suitable for the entire member population.
 
Streaming Quality
Netflix understands that browsing experience mainly depends upon the device which you are using, where cellular networks might be unstable, especially when it is compared with the broadband networks. Therefore, Netflix mainly relies on the adaptive streaming algorithms based on the device condition as well as the current network, so this algorithm decides the suitable video quality be streamed throughout playback.
 
Registered users under one account

One of the major features which differentiate Netflix from any other streaming services is nothing but a former carefully watches all the registered devices under an account, where end user can easily check the list of the device whenever they sign in. So, by using the membership plan section, it is possible to replace or remove the existing desktop as well as smartphones.
 
Below are the given comparisons of Netflix with other competitors: 
 
Netflix and Hulu
Netflix and Hulu are compatible with numerous modern smartphones as well as tablets, so even the interface for both these services are user-friendly still some of these features are making Netflix a slightly better option in terms of usability. For example, it has a closed captioning option for its content, where the parental control year this service is also more robust. However, users can also enjoy Dolby Atmos soundtracks for some of the content by Netflix, so this is something which you cannot expect from Hulu.
 
Netflix and Amazon Prime
If you compare Netflix with Amazon Prime video, then Netflix is one of the consistent interfaces in most of the compatible devices, so a single member can have a multiple user profiles on Netflix and each profile gets its own set of recommendations because a unique feature associated with Netflix is its smart downloads feature which automatically removes the episodes which the user already watched. So, once the Wi-Fi available, it automatically downloads the subsequent episode which is something not available with amazon prime video, so the responsive search of Netflix makes it easier for users to locate the content which they are seeking quickly, as many people feel that the search option for amazon prime is a bit confusing.
 
 
So for wrapping up Netflix is working on making the experience more personalized, so it is currently testing the functionality of personalized tags as well as text descriptions, so the technologies which are related to movie recommendations are regularly evolving. Thus, it has made it possible that numerous mobile devices will let the users to see the films seamlessly as the feature mainly limited to the few devices.
