Acision Launches Diameter Intelligent Signalling Controller; Enabling Operators to Have Greater Control Over Diameter Based Networks
LONDON, February 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Intelligent dynamic routing solution, with pre-emptive overload protection
and smart Quality of Service (QoS) management, assures high availability and profitability
of LTE networks
Acision, a global mobile services leader, today launches Acision Diameter Intelligent
Signalling Controller (DiSC), enabling operators rolling out LTE and Evolved Packet
Switched core networks, to dynamically control and manage increasing data traffic to drive
efficiencies and protect their revenue streams.
LTE subscriptions are growing significantly, as is the volume of data on those
networks, with the GSMA predicting that there will be 465 LTE networks in play by 2017. As
part of this roll-out, operators are turning to IP network architectures, incorporating
LTE with existing 3G networks, to better meet demands for more, faster data. As a result
operators need to optimise the network infrastructure, increasing control and security
over their Evolved Packet Core signalling networks and relieving pressure from increases
in traffic, while enabling network scalability.
Acision DiSC controls 4G LTE Diameter signalling traffic, leveraging dynamic
multi-layer routing mechanisms. This enables operators to develop an efficient Evolved
Packet Switched Core network based on a future proof architecture, with increased
resilience and smart signalling flow control. For example, pre-emptive overload protection
helps to maintain the efficiency of Diameter traffic management during unexpected traffic
peaks, or so called "signalling storms". Our Smart Quality of Service (QoS) management
also helps to ensure guaranteed signalling channels for the operator's most valuable
subscribers and services under any load conditions.
Adolfo Hernandez, CEO at Acision commented: "Operators are facing an explosion in data
traffic. As smartphone and tablet use increases, alongside data-heavy applications such as
video and social media channels, the network is under increasing pressure to perform to
higher standards. At the same time, operators have to balance their need to monetise these
networks with maintaining quality of service. As the most comprehensive diameter routing
solution on the market, Acision DiSC not only protects network assets but allows operators
the flexibility to manage their quality of service, by dynamically routing traffic to
safeguard their most important customers and applications."
Through the advanced Diameter interface control mechanisms, Acision DiSC also enables
numerous LTE roaming and interconnect scenarios. With its range of security features, such
as connectivity access control, topology hiding, volumetric traffic measurements and
conditional protocol validations, an operator is able to ensure connectivity with other
service providers regardless of whether their network is any combination of 2G, 3G or 4G,
in a secure manner.
JF Sullivan, EVP Product Management and CMO at Acision, added: "LTE investment is key
for operators today to ensure that they are meeting consumer demands for more data and
speed, but better network management means operators can also focus on the profitability
of their LTE rollout.
"Our combined DiSC router and broker is hardware independent, allowing operators
complete freedom to choose their hardware supplier. It may also be deployed in an
operator's own cloud environment while still delivering telecom grade performance. An
intuitive management interface provides a real time view of the connectivity status and
current load on all diameter links, enabling easy and non-service affecting
reconfiguration. By improving the management, efficiency and scalability of the network
with our solution, operators are able to future-proof their LTE investments."
