WESTFORD, Mass., May 22, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Key Takeaways:
- Sonus' entire product portfolio can be deployed in cloud
environments.
- Sonus enhances session aware routing in its PSX, making it
easier for customers to intelligently route sessions based on the
attributes and routing cost of the session.
- Enriched metrics and analytics for Sonus NetScore give
customers a more granular view of network traffic.
Sonus Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: SONS), a global leader in securing
cloud and real-time communications, announced today that its latest
Policy and Management release is now generally available. With this
solution release, Sonus provides a consolidated framework for
management, session control, billing mediation, and analytics
functions across legacy and next-generation communication networks.
Key updates include:
- Cloud: Customers can now deploy the Sonus DataStream
Integrator (DSI) and NetScore products in OpenStack-based cloud
environments. These two products complement the existing
cloud-native portfolio inclusive of the Sonus Session Border
Controller (SBC), PSX Centralized Policy and Routing Engine (PSX),
Diameter Signaling Controller (DSC) and Element Management System
(EMS).
- Intelligent Session Control: This release enables
customers to use the Sonus PSX to intelligently route traffic based
on the attributes of the session. For instance, customers can route
audio-only calls differently from bandwidth-heavy video calls,
providing greater network and cost control.
- Network Analytics: With this release, customer insight
into network capacity, bandwidth utilization and traffic patterns
has been improved. Sonus NetScore has access to new peak traffic
statistics in the GSX and provides new analytics for average and
peak trunk utilization, and trunk group bandwidth utilization. This
helps customers plan capacity extensions accordingly.
- Gateway: With ongoing investments in the Sonus
GSX, customers can now optimize media path for SIP-SIP backhaul,
allowing these customers to lower network costs by freeing up media
ports on the intermediate gateway.
