Caminat
the leading provider of policy control and application assurance
technology, today announced that Heavy Reading in its latest report on
"Policy Control & DPI: The New Broadband Imperative" has concluded
that there will be rapid growth in deployment of policy tools over the
next two years, both in wireline and wireless networks.
The market is
being driven by a desire to control high-bandwidth applications and to
enrich the range of options available to consumers. Camiant was named a
clear leader among Policy Specialists in this report that outlines a
shift in the market towards mobile operators as more players deploy
mobile broadband services.
The Heavy Reading
report found that policy control is an increasingly important aspect of
the general transition to an all IP next gen network (NGN). Most
service providers believe that they need to more intelligently control
access to network resources, applications and subscribers.
"Flexible
rules-based policy engines are going to become more important in
future," said Graham Finnie, Chief Analyst at Heavy Reading and author
of the report. "Policy matters more than ever before and centralized
policy servers are likely to be an important element in helping telcos
increase the value of their propositions."
Heavy
Reading's report said that Camiant's strengths included its strong
support for key standards, depth of intellectual property and strong
partnering with third parties.
"Camiant is
delighted to be named a leader in the policy space by Heavy Reading,"
said Randy Fuller, vice president of business development for Camiant.
"Camiant is laser focused on providing operators with better QoS and
revenue-generation assurance via the industry's foremost centrally
managed policy server."
Camiant's Policy
Control Server, fully compliant with 3GPP*'s Policy and Charging Rules
Function (PCRF) specifications, is an essential component of the
broadband network, providing vital real-time intelligence and
management of network resources, while creating an infrastructure for
new revenue opportunities.
