Reduce Costs of CHANGE.

For Vertel, listening and talking to Communication Providers is very valuable. 

The convergence of voice, data and video has led to an explosion of technologies that provide new, enhanced services. Service Providers need to support network equipment and software services from multiple vendors and are constantly upgrading their networks and facilities. 

We understand our customers are looking for very flexible, open solutions that enable this convergence, and at the same time help reduce costs and preserve existing investments, improve the time to market for new services and derive incremental revenue. 

Since the networks are the “bread and butter” for service providers, every solution in the network layer needs to be solid and proven, secure and scalable. Vertel has been delivering proven technology solutions to communication providers such as AT&T, China Mobile Cingular, Deutsche Telekom Verizon and Williams Communications for more than 16 years.


The M*Ware solution

As described in the NG-OSS architecture M*Ware uses standards-based interfaces to create an open, ubiquitous network data layer bus that not only translates all network protocols to a common language, it also maps the diverse network data in a common model (in line with DMTF CIM).

With M*Ware Dynamic Mediation, this layer enables easy communication at protocol and data level between any OSS and any underlying network and offers enormous opportunities to streamline multiple and meshed interfaces. 

Standard protocol adapters for CMIP, SNMP, CORBA, TL-1 and XML can be loaded with meta-data to support user specified MIB, DTD or IDL. Latest telecom interface standards (MTNM, 3GPP and OSS-J) are fully supported. Syntactic logic is captured in rules engines or scripts that can be changed at runtime. Administrative functions and distribution guarantee highest flexibility, availability and scalability. 

On top of the standardized data layer M*Ware Convergent Management System provides a wide set of system and FCAPS services, that can be plugged-in and configured easily so that any in-house developer or system integrator can rapidly create precisely the required, effective multi-vendor solutions to further streamline, consolidate and automate operations. Different sets of services are available for integrated management (IMS), service management (SMS), network management (NMS), element management systems (EMS) and embedded systems.

Convergent management applications can reduce the process costs for fault management, configuration management and performance management substantially. 

M*Ware Exchange solutions reduce the operational inefficiencies incurred within network operation centers and customer care centers, due to manual process interfaces to providers, partners and business customers by 40 % or more. While repair and customer services run faster the process and service quality increases, and thus the customer satisfaction.

M*Ware is also integrated with different best-in-class partner OSSs for complete provisioning, QoS-Management and customer-self-care solutions.

M*Ware is complemented by the necessary tools (e.g.  protocol stacks and simulators) to ensure the highest development efficiency for our customers.

Vertel also provides Professional Services for specialist support, consultancy and customized turnkey project implementations.
