Inter-mediatE
Inter-mediatE from Intec Telecom Systems is
the world’s most scalable, flexible and powerful convergent mediation system,
with proven ability to gather, process and distribute usage data from any kind
or size of network. Its distributed, component-based architecture adapts
rapidly to your business needs, delivering the highest quality of information
to your downstream systems. Best of all, Inter-mediatE is installed and
working in over 110 of the world’s busiest mobile, fixed, 3G and IP networks.
BUILT TO HANDLE COMPLEXITY
Inter-mediatE provides the critical functions of convergent mediation:
- Using plug-ins as collection agents, the Data Acquisition Portal captures data from any network – fixed, mobile, or IP.
- The Business Processing Framework provides an environment where both basic and complex business rules can be implemented.
- The Data Distribution Portal also uses plug-ins to move data throughout the business. Inter-mediatE distributes the functions of complex mediation through a series of software managers.
Basic processing rules are handled by the
Business Logic Manager while more complex requirements are handled by
dedicated software subsystems. For example, duplicate data and partial events
are a problem for IP/2.5G/3G Service Providers. Inter-mediatE uses the
Duplicate Manager and the Correlation Manager to assemble this data into
high-quality records, even in high volume environments. NGNode, a major
component of Smart Distribution, is a software element that mediates network
events from IP, 2.5G, and 3G networks. The NGNode executes on a small,
dedicated server close to the network elements. It collects network events,
performs pre-mediation and delivers the processed data to the centralized
Inter-mediatE platform.
SCALABILITY AND PERFORMANCE
The arrival of broadband wireless services has massively increased the burden
on mediation platforms in 2.5G and 3G networks. Data acquisition from many
different network elements, and large volumes of information, are just two of
the problems. Scalable applications are critical. Inter-mediatE answers these
challenges with Smart Distribution, a software architecture that allows you to
combine centralized and distributed platforms. Using Smart Distribution,
Inter-mediatE has been benchmarked processing 12 billion network events in 10
hours on a single HP Superdome server. Inter-mediatE is not tied to any single
billing model. Instead, the most flexible approach possible has been taken
allowing complete flexibility to implement the business rules required to
support virtually any future billing model. This provides the user the ability
to launch new products and services quickly in full support of marketing
department and regulatory requirements. Mediation is the most critical
component of any carrier’s Operations and Business Support Systems, the portal
between your network and the systems which generate revenue, understand and
know your customers and let you run an efficient, competitive business.
