• Unique architecture, that provides a uniform network data layer with flexible sets of services on top, 
• 10 years of Vertel experience, and 
• Carrier-grade quality implementation. 

Through its combination of application and mediation software components, M*Ware is easier to configure, and far more open for focused customized solutions, than any competitive product. Integration and management applications can rapidly be configured in-house of by System Integrators.

A 21st Century service assurance solution contains requires a number of key new features:

• Distributed engines for collection, correlating events, and aggregating FCAPS data from each device and network domain. This gives a consolidated view of the network and feeds northbound applications. 
• A ubiquitous bus enables communication within the total network management system and uses standard interfaces and a common workflow model to tie together the various applications. A uniform network data layer is vital to the success of end-to-end service definition. This enables Communication Providers to move beyond single device management, which is prohibitive in managing large networks with dynamically changing services.
• A set of Common Services. Traditionally each application has to maintain its own database, workflow management, etc. consequently, each device domain necessitates its own specific set of applications, which of course is expensive and very unpractical, as soon as common customers and common network services cross multiple platforms. These common services need to be standards based, to maintain a common quality and common set of services available across the network.
• Consistent Security: Authorization and hierarchical inheritance is necessary to provide domain and policy-based management. The security model needs to span the entire domain-based network to provide robust security policies.
• All applications leverage this common set of services so whenever new applications are introduced, they merely need to leverage the common services to get up and running.
• Manage very smart devices with intelligent agents in them for better instrumentation, exposition, and more granular information across FCAPS. Vertel, as complete convergent solution provider, also delivers intelligent agents.

This is the basic functional architecture of M*Ware. M*Ware’s standard components provide the ubiquitous network data layer on top of which a rich set of common services are available to build any type network information applications.

M*Ware offers the ideal balance between customer specific code and product components. M*Ware applications are based on a flexible combination of productized, off-the-shelf components, and a minimal percentage of configurable components (code, rules, scripts) to build the precise solution that the customer requires.
