Enhanced Services
Current challenges in the telecom market are
driving the requirement for the development and fielding of enhanced
services to generate additional revenue in the same or less physical
space. They need Open Systems platforms to support multiple processor
and operating systems architectures, with high availability strategies
extending beyond 5-9's. They require architectures which are scalable,
reliable, supportable, and "Fit for Use" for the applications they are
targeting, and in the environments in which they are fielded.
Addressing the range of application
from the Enterprise space to the Telco Central Office,
Telecommunications Infrastructure customers define the concept of
combining the needs of the application with the environment in which
the application must exist. Applications which provide the opportunity
to realize additional revenue on existing telecom infrastructure
bandwidth, such as Voice over IP, Softswitches, Media Gateways, SS7,
wireless base station controllers, trunked radio, voice/data grooming,
Frame Relay, ISDN and LAN/MAN/WAN bridging, all offer the promise of
delivering enhanced services with attractive Return On Investment
opportunities.
Platforms serving these converging
technologies allow the telecom equipment provider to field revenue
generating services in the shortest possible time, with enhanced
flexibility, scalability and maintainability, allowing them to
concentrate their efforts on their own areas of core competence,
increasing their efficiency and value.
With our products targeted for the
Central Office, and our platforms focused on the needs of the
Enterprise space, I-Bus offers Solaris and Linux-based High
Availability solutions, featuring products from our "Best of Breed" partners,
such
as UpSuite HA from Continuous Computing and High Availability
Middleware from Go-Ahead Software.
